How?

Please document it.

Even the terminology around bodhi is confusing. I've had to "push" a
package. After more than a week there hasn't been any feedback about the
test update but another bug report about stock F7. Apparently in bodhi I
could mark the package stable myself without an idea of what procedures I
need to adhere to and saw an option to "unpush" it without any indication
of whether that refers to the test update or from where it would withdraw
the update. Apparently, announcements have been mailed, but without Cc,
and I still think Test Updates for F7 shouldn't be announced on
fedora-test-list, but on fedora-list.

On the same day this Wiki page was modified with heavy layout changes,
I've lost the overview. I find this page increasingly difficult to read
and navigate. The strange table layout makes it worse. Usually, when
somebody asked me about where to find documents in the Wiki, I used to be
able to help or look up an entry-section quickly. That doesn't work
anymore. Meanwhile the page is crowded. Nobody with expertise on creating
quality web page seems to have the final say about it.
