I would prefer to have an analysis of the difference between what has<br>
been migrated already<br>
<a href="https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/bsps/index.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/bsps/index.html</a> versus<br>
what is in the wiki. If some content needs to move out of the wiki,<br>
then a patch to add it to the docs would be good, then we could<br>
discuss on the list whether or not to move that content or to delete<br>
it. If content has been migrated or the migration discussion leads to<br>
a decision to delete, then we should remove that page. Removing a page<br>
requires an admin privilege, so I think a list of pages to be removed<br>
should be maintained somewhere like<br>
<a href="https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/TBR/BSP" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/TBR/BSP</a></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I have made a sweep to delete all text which has links to non-existent pages</div><div>since those do not have to be reviewed.</div><div><br></div><div>My next pass is to delete all pages for BSPs and ports that have been removed.</div><div>That is a simple review process. </div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I have completed this also. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br></div><div>After that, what should be left is a list of pages which need manual review to</div><div>extract/convert useful content to the Users Guide.
