Suggestion re the possible creation of a smaller "TitleIndex" Wiki page.

Hello,
I don't know if this email is going to the right address or not, however
please advise if it is not the case.
In case the address is O.K. I will outline my suggestion anyway. I made
an embarrassing faux pas in the Ubuntu Forums when I suggested that
there was a need for a Documentation Contents Wiki, not knowing that a
Title Index already existed.
However this index does not completely fulfil the requirements that I
had in mind. As an example, I have about 62 Documentation pages on my
computer, those being the ones I most refer to, either for my own
purposes or to post links in the forums. My idea of having a
Documentation Contents Wiki would mean all links in the page would
eliminate the need for these addresses to be Bookmarked separately. One
Bookmarked address however may not prove ideal for the present Title
Index in my opinion. I found on my computer that it took 22 seconds to
load initially.
I see the ideal number of links on such a page for me would be perhaps
between 100 and 120. I would be interested in knowing the present number
of links on the page. As an exercise I was thinking of creating a Wiki
page with less links in it. I considered that I could possibly post a
thread on the Forums Cafe to measure the worth of such an idea and to
possibly collect a list of popular Pages. It would be a learning process
for me if I was to attempt such a task.
Another problem (for me anyway) is that I find the present Title Index
hard to read. Perhaps with a larger font the lesser number of titles
could be accommodated ? My last question relates to which template was
used for the present Title Index.
I trust this suggestion is going to the right place.
With kind regards,
Geoff Smith.
