[Bug 859372] Re: wiki describes development, not user documentation

[Sam_]

Although first paragraph is pretty clear assume the term 'wiki' confused
because german ubuntuusers also call their community help documentation
'wiki', so maybe while searching for documentation they lookup
wiki.ubuntu.com instead help.ubuntu.com. My guess results from using the
term 'official wiki' in the request which may lead german locales to
equal it with a help documentation for end users. Not saying it isn't
useful though, actually it's very interesting for end users too.

As far as I remember previous Ubuntu Wiki pages had the term 'specs' in url.
e.g.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/PolicyKitIntegration
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/LucidUbuntuOneMusicStore

Maybe just adding bold 'Specification' or 'Dev Specification' to each
title (or below) helps to distinguish it from community help docs.

Title:
  wiki describes development, not user documentation

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The main wiki page about Software Center (
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter ) seems to be all about
  planning and development, without much data that would be useful to
  end users.  Could this perhaps be re-organized, and some user
  documentation written?  Here is the specific request I got about it:

  [ISD Customer Support #5037]
  From: 	march at ubuntuusers.de

  Hello,
  I'm a little bit confused about the informations about the software-center in the official wiki. It contains many future options. The main thing I want to know is: how can I purchase software in detail, which payments are accepted (paypal ...), will I get a special deb://... for my sources to download software? Via Email or where will I get it? Can this software I purchased used in future releases of ubuntu too? Will there be a software-center for Kubuntu? It would be nice if you could give me detailled informations, because I want to add these missing informations to our official german wiki you can find here: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Software-Center / http://translate.google.de/translate?sl=de&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.ubuntuusers.de%2FSoftware-Center

  Regards
  Marc
