Just as I had my break from things to re-charge my batteries, we are now discussing how best to keep the wiki areas updated and to ensure that new comers can be sure that the page that they land on is relevant to their release. I've always been opposed to deleting old wiki pages for older releases, as if some one is happy with, say, 9.04, who are we to remove information that works for them. The 'tags' can look after this issue, it is still a work in progress in my mind as to how best to go about this. Throwing ideas around and reaching a consensus will be good, not only for us as a team, but both for people who rely upon the pages and also for new comers to let them 'cut their teeth'. A true win-win scenario :)<div>

<strong>Unsupported Version:</strong> This article appears to apply to unsupported versions of Ubuntu.<br>or something else less definite that the way it is set at the moment. <br><br>If something definitely only applies to unsupported versions then it should definitely be removed but i think there are a lot of pages where it's unclear or where just a bit of updating or pruning large chunks out might fix the page. However, even so, i think it would be good to use the tag as it is to see if it helps shake things up a bit. <br>
<br>I also quite like Jonathon's idea of listing some of the versions the page is known to work with. I think there are dangers with it but even so it's worth considering
imo. <br><br>Regards from <br><span><font color="#888888">Tom :) <br></font></span><div><br><div><span><br></span></div><div><br></div> </div><div style="font-family:verdana,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt">

It can make a page appear outdated even if it's contents are still valid and just means people have to take care to edit every single page even if it's only for that 1 thing. <br>
<br>It has always been my worry that it's the only reason some of our current pages have a bad reputation for being old. The advice might still be solid but the version numbers are so out of date that the page is in danger of getting deleted and the wisdom or cunning lost. Since the move to Unity that has been a lot less of an issue and i am beginning to agree it would be good to just wipe out a large number of pages, or at least stop them from being publicly accessible, but probably just deleting would be best. <br>
