Ooops -- I misread that. My preference would be separate pages, just for consistency with existing practice for the other w* pages. The alternative would be to move the text of the existing w* pages into there non-w* counterparts. Whichever, consistency would be best, and the undocumented w* pages need to be documented (by someone).
