We'll see. Adding it to the wiki definitely makes sense.

If you can do screenshots, please do. IMHO this is not necessary, but as
a long time Fedora user and contributor I am not speaking for everybody.
I think new users will love some screenshots, but please make sure they
don't get too large, e.g. use virtualization with 640x400 or 800x600 px.
