On both the FrontPage and the UserDocumentation pages there is a link
to the WikiGuide - which stated:

"Don't link pages in UserDocumentation until they have been reviewed
and are out of CategoryCleanup"

The above statement clearly states the intention of UserDocumentation
and the review process before links are added to UserDocumentation. 
UserDocumentation used to contain the links that are now found in
pages linked directly off UserDoc like Multimedia, Video, etc..  I
have changed the statement to reflect the current change in the format
of UserDoc:

"Don't link pages on the pages directly linked-off UserDocumentation
(eg. Multimedia) until they have been reviewed and are out of
CategoryCleanup"

I hope this clears things up for you.

Naaman.
