I'm just not sure which, if any, of that info is still relevant. If we can get all relevant information moved from Artwork to Design then we can hopefully archive the Artwork page and redirect it to the Design page.

Actually, I'd like to have more focus and consistency on wiki entries
and wiki pages. I don't really know how it can be managed better than
what it is already, but at the moment I see too many wiki pages and
too many that overlap each other. And I have to be honest, if I were
new to the whole project and just seeking some basic information on
Fedora Design Team and the Design Suite Spin I would be quite confused
as to what it's all about.

I will be raising this issue up soon in my Owners and (Co) Maintainers
Email Meeting to get some ideas and feedback on how wiki entries can
be more professionally and properly managed to maintain some sort of
consistency.

Oh... and nice work Emily.

Regards
