> My opinion on the core vs non-core definitions still stands

If someone can improve it, it's welcome.

Perhaps the exact definition doesn't matter that much, since there's a 
standard procedure for determining if a package is core or not. So 
probably giving an approximate idea serves the job.

I thought a wiki was a place for learning.

If the visual is conceptually related with the text, it will make the 
content easier to remember and more attractive to read; even in the case 
it isn't explanatory.

If you take any textbook aimed for learning, for example those from 
bachelor or high school, you will notice that they already use the above 
technique widely.

This is a topic I have been thinking for a while, and concluded I had 
some vices. Probably Elfy has thought that we were about to fall in 
those again, but I have at present abandoned the ideas that let to them.

If I bring this topic is not because small talking, but as this is 
intimately related with what I decided is the most valuable thing I can 
do right now in this project. It will put a small step ahead for making 
users to manage bugs themselves.


Regards.
