Perhaps some mechanism to archive obsolete yet relevant wiki pages

a feature, or what sort of effort would be required to hack one in if
it doesn't, but being able to classify wiki pages into
separate tiers of importance could be helpful.
I also think that keeping the docs for average users, power users,
contributors and developers (there seems to me to be four sets of
users, not three as has been mentioned earlier) makes sense since all
of those groups have different needs. I as a developer would like to
know how to navigate the Unity source code, or how to quickly learn
the process for submitting a patch (from start to finish), without
having to wade through pages of configuration file tweaks aimed at
power users. A single landing page for everyone starting out may be
appropriate, but after that I think they should diverge.

In my previous email on this thread, I
dug out a specification created in 2005, for example. It was
implemented over 5 years ago, and hasn't been touched since then,
but
keeping it around reminds us why we did something and can be used as
a
reference if a similar discussion crops up in the future
