You're looking at the structure as created and migrated over 8 years. Also see https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1939 for another option. Our wiki is trying to be all things to all people, and is clearly failing, or at least confusing everywhere.
Interesting, I hadn't seen #1939 before. I think having a development status page would be great. I might even write one at some point. But I think having a clearer separation between the documentation part of the wiki and the development part would be even useful when we have such a development status page.
Trac search isn't very good. Lots of people use https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TitleIndex to find their way around the wiki.
Yes, that's how I find stuff, too. Unfortunately, that approach depends very much on meaningful URLs/wiki page names.
Most of this is going to be a "do-acracy", he/she who does the work, wins. The only part to be careful with is the actual faq pages. Those are heavily linked from around the world.
Which pages are that? The ones starting with TheOnionRouter/ ? And should we put in redirects for those pages, at least for the next 6 or 12 months?
I can pull up the view of our trac according to google's webmaster tools if you're interested.
Yes, having the Google Webmaster Tools output might be useful. Can you make that available somewhere?
Thanks, Karsten
