Hi :)
I think you can create a new page
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuSecurityAdvice
To edit the Community Documentation and edit or add pages you only need to register yourself and it sounds as though you have already done that.  Note that capital letters as the first letter of each word makes it easier to read.  CamelCase
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CamelCase

Of course you know that CtrlA and then CtrlC in the old page copies everything and then CtrlV in the new page pastes it.  At some point it might be good to change the old page to a redirect to the new one.  The problem is that people and other pages might have links to the old page and it's going to be tricky to try to find all the pages
 that point to it.  I think that's why it is a good idea to ask the documentation team, because they probably have experience at this sort of thing.

Sorry i am not being hugely helpful here.  I'm not good at working in a team and tend to do my own thing, carefully trying to avoid things that might need me to be in a team.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes sure, I understand how the spaces will cause issues. 



Is it possible that we can move this page out of "mailinglistFAQs" and 
into something less specific? having this question in mailing list faq's
 seems to indicate its only an faq for mailing list. Can we move it to 
.. help.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntusecurityadvice    or 
help.ubuntu.com/community/faqs/ubuntusecurityadvice? Something to this 
nature. Having it in mailinglistfaq's doesn't really make since because 
its an faq for all locations. 



i can then link the new page location from the old category of mailinglistfaqs





also, i would like to join the doc team and obtain further access. Im also having issues correcting images on this page

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckingYourUbuntuVersion



even though i update the page with new images and over wright the old 
images, they don't overwrite. I need to delete the old and upload new.

Hi :)
I like the basic idea but suggest a slight modification ... 



Spaces make things messy and incomprehensible to most users.  Please could we go with CamelCase?
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailingListFAQs/UbuntuSecurityAdvice



CamelCase like that can make it easier to link to in other pages too.  Underscores, hyphens and other strange characters sometimes seem to cause problems or go through fashions (making pages look very dated very quickly).

not sure if this is the correct mailing list but i would like to update/change this pages name/title.
 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailingListFAQs/securingNewInstall


the title isn't very inviting. I would like to rename this page to "Ubuntu Security Advice" 


I would also like to know how I can obtain access to revert pages to prior revisions and the ability to add new pages and delete spam pages.
