Hi Connor,

I'll get those links added to the
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationTeam area. However, I've had
problems with #redirect and then tried #refresh as I'd seen it on the wiki
before. One of the problems for my issuing #redirect is that the page
displays the message it has been redirected and asks for the user to clear
the message. We've also found that browser cache's tend to mess things up.
I'd appreciate any help on that. We're currently just using one page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/SubTeams/DocumentationSubTeam to be
redirected to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationTeam whilst I
set up the instructions for us all. I do have some extra pages away from
'live' wiki areas at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/training with a couple
of sub areas for people to hone their skills on issuing either #divert or
#refresh.

As to the bug for the removal of attachements / links, yes I did raise one
after chatting to Phil. However, as with most un-loved bugs it seems to
have died (I cannot find it in my history of reported bugs). Very easy to
reproduce, add an external image file (in our example), then go and remove
it. Rolling the history back does not bring it back. Phil did ask I make it
a bug report, which I did. I'm guessing a new bug needs to be raised unless
it was solved & I missed the email saying it was fixed.

I do know everyone is mad busy at the moment, we on lubuntu have a team
ready to trawl through all the duplicated and triplicated pages that
luubntu have to ensure there are no broken links. After that, who knows -
I'm hopeful that some of them will progress onto full wiki admin.

As ever, thanks for your answers,

Phill.
