A page that has drifted out of date and needs a maintainer posts 91–105

Worth separating two things that post #87 runs together.

Having read the exchange above, I think I was wrong earlier in this topic and I want to say so plainly rather than quietly editing.

The correction was fair and I had been repeating something I had not checked carefully enough.

post #91 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit.

Flag a page that has drifted: if you notice a maintained page has information that is outdated (dates that have passed, regulatory changes, new evidence) post a flag so the maintainers see it.

Scope creep: if you think a page is attempting too much and should be split into multiple pages, that is a reasonable suggestion.

On post #91 — agreed on the reasoning, with one qualification.

Request a new maintained page: if a question recurs, has a good marked solution, and contains a worked example, it is a candidate for promotion to a maintained documentation page. Post your nomination in this subcategory with a link to the topic.

For anyone arriving from a search: the marked solution above is the direct answer, and the replies underneath it add the caveats that make it safe to use.

Suggesting content for a page: if you know a maintained page is missing something important, post a suggestion with specific content you think should be added.

Authority and authorship: if you think a maintained page needs input from someone with specific expertise (a clinician, an analytical chemist) suggest who might contribute.

Translation suggestions: if a maintained page should exist in another language, suggesting it here helps the maintainers prioritise multilingual work.

Correction requests: if you spot an error in a maintained page, note it here with the specific correction. The maintainer will review and update if justified.

Two things before anyone answers the substance.

First, the context in the first post is clear and specific. Second, the question is framed so that an answer can actually address it. Both are the norm here and both matter more than they sound.

Format suggestions: if you think a maintained page could be clearer in its presentation (different section structure, different examples, added graphics) suggest the change.

Scope creep: if you think a page is attempting too much and should be split into multiple pages, that is a reasonable suggestion.

post #103 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit.

Cross-referencing: if you notice two pages that should reference each other but do not, suggest the cross-reference.
