I regret you could find nothing more than that. It appears that the
whole thrust of customer focus was lost.

I would certainly not do that. Don't you see that the concepts of where
I am coming from would need to be accepted first? Else all hell would
break loose as I went in making changes that reflected them. I have got
enough flak so far, if I just started changing what I think ought to be,
there would be an uproar.

Have done before. Plus there is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetterWikiDocs
and something about FrontPageDraft. One key point for Part 3 was about
eliminating all duplicate pages. 

ps. Another bit of part 3 was to briefly introduce the Quality concept
of Process, and also where you are confusing Solution with Problem,
Implementation with Design, and what it means for this site, eg
controlling a standards and procedures and as part of an implementation
of that: a template, plus finally the specifics, now that they all tie
in. However you do not seem to have picked up on the fundamental point
yet.

Thanks to all for your input. Based on it, it appears my time will be
wasted here - I'll just let you carry right on.
Good luck.
