Indeed there's a simpler solution, Geoff. As we're just querying the
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ universe, all the pages listed in
http://temp.knome.fi/docs/docs-popular.html belong there.

As an example, the [[Xen]] page. All you have to do is place the name of
the page after the last right slash in the url:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen

That's all, just copy the name of the page from the Tool and past it in the
url.

Cheers,
David
