David - you seem to be fishing, but it's not clear for what exactly. There are hundreds of pages of documentation about weewx on the wiki and in the various guides. There are thousands of posts. There is so much documentation out there I can't even guess what you're not finding or what

Belchertown is a very complex skin with lots of JavaScript and Python scripts contributing some values. Major changes in layout require deep study of the internal structure. If you have to fulfill special requirements in layout, may be you want to start based on another skin like Seasons.
