Thanks, I'm planning to go through the pages and check for links before
deleting them, as per the deleting policy. I'll start the link removal
process at the beginning of the list, so if anyone would like to help
out by working from the end of the list, that would be great. (To do
this, go to a page from [2] and click on the page's title. You'll be
taken to a list of pages which link to that page. Remove the links to
the page so it's ready to be deleted.)

As far as I'm aware, our policy is still that translated documentation
should be kept on the local teams' websites. I'll delete the translated
docs from the wiki anyway, but maybe it would be a good idea to forward
the backed-up text to the appropriate local team's mailing list too?

Thanks,

Phil
