You sure are missing something.  The entire page and the pages it links to
are what Livna lacks.  What Livna needs to do is copy that page and the
pages it links to, changing Fedora to Livna and changing the links and
filling in the blanks.

Or perhaps you think that Fedora doesn't need that page, and that it should
be deleted so it looks like Livna?
