Changes to wiki page Bugs/Importance

[Alberto Salvia Novella]

Why I *changed pages* without asking
- Because I guess letting people make changes and discussing only those 
on which we don't agree makes *further progress*, further than speaking 
everything before hand. And if there's no consensus letting other's 
opinion to prevail.


When I'm *reverting* the page to the version previous to my editions
- When some members of Ubuntu Quality formally disagree with the 
previous *methodology*, and I'll understand and respect the decision.


Why I *renamed* the page from "bugs" to "bug importance"
- For the title page to be semantic complete itself; what its not 
important for developers but to the *average user*. If this was 
accepted, I had planed to do the same to the rest of pages for consistency.


Why I *haven't redirected* the previous page title to the new one
- Because keeping the number of pages to the minimum to make *browsing* 
for pages of the same category simpler, because I've *corrected links* 
in all the pages I've found, and because it's already *easy to find* the 
new page in the suggestions for these minimum cases where the link is 
broken.


Why I have deleted the *header*
- Because it's expected that nearly every user that enters the page to 
be looking to *not something more* than bug importance itself. Perhaps 
there can be a header for making easier to navigate between 
documentation, but the header we had here looked rather like a 
*warning*; so it is expected it to distract the user rather than making 
navigation to look simpler, specially being in the top of the page.


Why I removed the *introduction*
- Because what is bug importance is *self-explanatory*, specially being 
expected that the user will come to this page from one that speaks about 
what bug triaging is.


Why I putted *how to set* bug importance at the bottom of the page
- Because this is information *you read one time*, over bug importance 
sets being read many times. And it's already *easy to notice* this 
information is there.


Questions
- Would I have been able to edit the page if I had to explain these 
points, and the rest of them, before the edition; or I had simply 
*chosen not to* try so?
- Is this the same to *the rest* of people?
- How much *time* do you thing a message like this will someone take to 
write? And to answer? How do you see this for *every choose* (or not 
choose)?
- What is more important for you: things to be *simple*, or things to be 
*correct*?
- What is the *advantage* of Ubuntu as operating systems over the rest 
for users?
- And for its *management*, is it the same?


Just ideas 🐂
