I have multiple problems with this proposal. 1) Most pages don't actually become obsolete with a new Debian release. The number of incompatible changes in a new release is usually pretty small. 2) Re-creating the *entire* wiki every time there's a new release is a stupidly ridiculous amount of effort. Not just the initial act of moving creating a whole new versioned page for every existing nonversioned page -- which by *itself* is already ridiculous -- but then there's the step of rewriting the whole wiki. Rewriting. The. Whole. Wiki. Do you even hear yourself? 3) Who's this "crowd" that you're planning to "crowdsource" all of this work onto?
