Triage documentation in wiki
Closed, MigratedEdits Locked

Description

The Software Heritage wiki contain crowd-sourced documentation but is not very visible.
With this task we search for a decision-process to triage wiki pages into four categories:

  1. should be in website (visibility for visitors)
  2. should be in docs (visibility for users/contributors)
  3. should stay as wiki page (with motivation)
  4. should be removed

Please edit this task or add comments with the wiki page and the following properties:
