== Removal of top heading? ==
Looking at the table of contents of the Manual, it bothers me that the top heading, i.e. "1." is "User Manual", which refers to the whole page. It means that all of the other content in the manual is 1.x, which seems silly. IMHO, the table looks neater without the <pre>=User Manual=</pre> line. Could that title be removed? Maybe renaming the page to Documentation/User_Manual to make it more obvious to the layman? [[User:Spookypeanut|Spookypeanut]] 23:31, 26 November 2007 (CET)
: Done [[User:Fingolfin|Fingolfin]] 19:01, 1 December 2007 (CET)
== Split the article? ==
Guys, it becomes huge. What about splitting it into subparts and put them hierarchially? --[[User:Sev|Sev]] 20:56, 30 November 2007 (CET)
:Yeah, that's more sensible than the giant page. -[[User:Clone2727|Clone2727]] 21:32, 30 November 2007 (CET)
: We can do that. It has various pros and cons, of coursed. Shorter pages, and split version histories. Are boons. On the other hand, moving around stuff is a bit more annoying, so is finding stuff (right now you can just Ctrl-F on the page). But since we have a Wiki search feature...

::So. somebody, please, do it. --[[User:Sev|Sev]] 20:27, 1 December 2007 (CET)
:::I'll do it, at some point this week, if nobody else does it first. Does the manual need to be Documentation/Manual? No other pages are under Documentation. Can't we move it to, say, UserManual? I can change that while I'm splitting it up. That way, the subsections can be, e.g., UserManual/Configuration. [[User:Spookypeanut|Spookypeanut]] 22:04, 3 December 2007 (CET)
::::I agree with that also. Though, I would say to User_Manual, to make it more legible. -[[User:Clone2727|Clone2727]] 22:40, 3 December 2007 (CET)
:::::I was forgetting that wiki page names can have spaces :-) Have moved it now, I hope that my assumption that strong feelings of "NO!" would have shown up here is correct. I haven't changed the pages that link to it yet, as that's much more work (which I don't want to have to undo if someone thinks it shouldn't be moved). There is a redirect tho.

== First steps section ==
What should the "first steps" section contain? All the simple stuff (adding a game and running it) is already in the "Running and Using" section, so I can't see what should be in "first steps" at all...[[User:Spookypeanut|Spookypeanut]] 22:32, 5 December 2007 (CET)
: The first step section has been removed. A new Quick Start page has been created though along with a reorganization of the manual pages. Hopefully it should better fit the needs. [[User:Criezy|Criezy]] 14:22, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
