Why I *changed pages* without asking
- Because I guess letting people make changes and discussing only those on which we don't agree makes *further progress*, further than speaking everything before hand. And if there's no consensus letting other's opinion to prevail.


When I'm *reverting* the page to the version previous to my editions
- When some members of Ubuntu Quality formally disagree with the previous *methodology*, and I'll understand and respect the decision.


Why I *renamed* the page from "bugs" to "bug importance"
- For the title page to be semantic complete itself; what its not important for developers but to the *average user*. If this was accepted, I had planed to do the same to the rest of pages for consistency.


Why I *haven't redirected* the previous page title to the new one
- Because keeping the number of pages to the minimum to make *browsing* for pages of the same category simpler, because I've *corrected links* in all the pages I've found, and because it's already *easy to find* the new page in the suggestions for these minimum cases where the link is broken.


Why I have deleted the *header*
- Because it's expected that nearly every user that enters the page to be looking to *not something more* than bug importance itself. Perhaps there can be a header for making easier to navigate between documentation, but the header we had here looked rather like a *warning*; so it is expected it to distract the user rather than making navigation to look simpler, specially being in the top of the page.


Why I removed the *introduction*
- Because what is bug importance is *self-explanatory*, specially being expected that the user will come to this page from one that speaks about what bug triaging is.


Why I putted *how to set* bug importance at the bottom of the page
- Because this is information *you read one time*, over bug importance sets being read many times. And it's already *easy to notice* this information is there.


Questions
- Would I have been able to edit the page if I had to explain these points, and the rest of them, before the edition; or I had simply *chosen not to* try so?
- Is this the same to *the rest* of people?
- How much *time* do you thing a message like this will someone take to write? And to answer? How do you see this for *every choose* (or not choose)? - What is more important for you: things to be *simple*, or things to be *correct*? - What is the *advantage* of Ubuntu as operating systems over the rest for users?
- And for its *management*, is it the same?


Just ideas 🐂

Hi Alberto,

I noticed that you made important changes to the Bugs/Importance wiki page [1], important enough to not be done without discussion. If it has already been discussed somewhere, could you please point me to the discussion.

One of the most important change you made was to rename the page from 'Bugs/Importance' to 'Bugs/Bug importance'. Furthermore there is no redirection from the previous version to this new page. The consequence is that there are now broken links on several other sections, this page is not found anymore by search engines with terms like 'ubuntu bugs importance' or even 'bug importance' and it adds no useful information since the word 'Bugs' was already on the URI. It also breaks consistency with other pages of the Bugs section named 'Bugs/<Category>' e.g Bugs/Status, ...

You moved the header that contains the link to the bugsquad knowledge base from the top to bottom. This is important information that must be on top because it gives reference to triaging material for some one who is not familiar with it and landed directly on this page.

You removed the introduction that explains what is importance and who can set it. The screenshot is a nice addition though. There are now 2 bullet points toward the end of the page, but who reads it entirely?

Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate your contributions but I think this is an important change to a core page of the Bugsquad knowledge base that needs discussion beforehand. I'd suggest to revert this page to rev 33, (especially the renaming of the page) then discuss your changes.

Cheers,
