Unsupported Wiki Page Suggested Format (Idea)

[Jonathan Aquilina]

Big advantage of legacy pages is that those that dont want to upgrade to a
newer release still have some form of documentation. Yes there will be no
more updates etc, but do you think its fair to leave them with out a form
of documentation? using Legacy pages will keep the latest stuff free from
clutter.
