winter cleanup in the wiki

winter cleanup in the wiki

[Jonas Stein]

Hi,

there are (were) many duplicate installation pages in the
wiki.

I merged some and deleted a lot duplicate stuff. 
The work is not finished yet. 

i created a new category in the wiki:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Category:deleteme

These articles are merged to others and no longer needed.

Is the part about Configuration files still up to date? 
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Installation_hints

Its last edited in 2008 and links to manuals from 2001 and 2003.

Kind regards,

maybe add a note there that it might make more sense to install the 
minimals or texlive (context package)

here is that note:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Installation_by_os

How do you think should we handle pages, that are obsolete in 
the wiki?


http://wiki.contextgarden.net/pdftex.cfg
said:
"There's no more pdftex.cfg since TDS 2004!"

I tagged pages like this one with "deleteme"

But what is the best solution for them?
Has this Wiki a Merge function to save the history? 
Should we empty and unlink them? Delete them?

Kind regards,

Wiki administrators can delete pages. So, just tag them, and one of us
will have a look at it, and if we agree, delete the page.

"We" should remove the links to these page before we delete 'em. There is a links somewhere at the bottom of the page that shows the pages that links to a current page. It opens a page such as
