My philosophy is that if it has some nugget of useful information in it that shouldn't be lost, then move it to the "deprecated" section as a quick fix. However, if everything in it is out-of-date and misleading and no longer applicable, then the body of it should get replaced with a pointer to the current instructions, at least until any Google searches no longer point to it... Do we have access to page views and such?
How many new developers walk away from WO every year because of old pages like this laying around? Yes, this is a rhetorical question, that has been asked many times before... I've been trying to go through and modernize stuff as I have time, especially the basics, but the WO/WOLips/Wonder spaces often times have redundant pages and I always feel like I'm trying to put out a house fire with a garden hose. If only we could really capture the fire hydrant of information that WOWODC is every year in the Wiki... sigh. I _really_ think we should merge the WO, Wonder and WOLips spaces of the Wiki. While they are distinct things, how many of us, in the past 4 years, has ever used them independently? It's time to stop pretending that WebObjects is a solution by itself anymore. WebObjects is really just WonderFoundation at this point. No new developer should ever be starting a plain-jane WO project. Ever. Not even a Hello World app. I'm sure this will be a topic discussed at WOWODC this year. Come make your voice heard!
