:: That sounds reasonable. [[Supported distributions]] can be an annotated index, useful for transclusion to other pages such as [[Downloads#Do_you_use_GNU.2FLinux.3F|Downloads#Do you use GNU/Linux?]] and [[Sugar Creation Kit#Community Distributions A Complete Listing]]; [[Ways to run Sugar]] could hold the introductory sections; [[Updating Sugar]] could hold general guidance on that process. They can stand independently, or be composed by transclusion into [[Supported systems]] or [[Systems that run Sugar]]. All these pages should be targeted primarily for non-developers, but with guidance that serves as a primer for curious and developing minds. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 20:57, 27 June 2012 (EDT) | :: That sounds reasonable.

The downside of distributions pages being top level pages is that they (and their child pages) cannot then be collected together automatically. I have added the Community/Distributions SubPage index to [[Supported systems]], to demonstrate a different approach. If the distro-specific material currently in [[Supported systems]] could all be updated into correct distro page, would the resulting [[Supported systems]] page be useful? --[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 22:29, 29 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
