::::::I have left a section at the bottom unfinished - I did not actually check it was '''all''' duplicated. I was going to come back to the style for '''headings''', esp. in relation to Contents, depending what the finished job looked like!--[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 22:16, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

===Mid session review===
Firstly on a personal note thank you, Fgrose, for digging me out of a pickle.

It was a mistake for me to try to change so much so quickly with my level of experience. It was a mistake to remove headings - my intention was to achieve a fresh start - error. Thank you for putting them back for me, and the generous general cleanup after it looked like an excavator had been in.

I did see the feedback from my earlier work at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Help_Requests (forgive URL for speed, I should be at work):
: No mistake. We prefer that contributors be bold. There is always the page history to help fix any problems.
: Here is an 'Under construction' template we can insert on a page while we are making significant changes:

'''''(Please use intrawiki link format. It's cleaner and needed for the 'What links here' wiki feature. Please prefer wiki code over HTML. Please use proper English. This is an educational institution.).''''' I apologize that I let that throw me when I then started to try to correct my work here.

I propose to leave this for now. Is it possible that more directive style of heading could be used for the earlier sections. I have seen the style here, but now I cannot re-find the link. Why? So that the most directive links all show in a 800x600 display (untested)--[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 09:17, 28 October 2011 (EDT)
