[Bf-docboard] 2.5 Wiki Changes

[mindrones]

Hi Narayan,

I'd prefer that decisions regarding blender's wiki are made by people
that have done significant work (meaning with a good amount of
contributions in the wiki itself) and following the rules we have.

Rules can be discussed of course, but IMHO by people that have already
followed the current ones for a while, and have a significant experience
and history in this wiki.

I don't really want to be harsh, but I don't see many edits in your user
page :/

I think it is understandable that there is a difference among people
doing real work and people having opinions, no offense.

New topics aren't a change (Cycles, Dynamic Paint).
Dopesheet represent a change, but that's just a small part of the whole
manual.

Bastien has waited several months before someone had the time to review,
it's normal, because this is a volunteering project.

Stating that you work on your own manual and pretending to make
decisions here is a bit weird IMHO.

There is a thread about SEO now, please reply there, thanks :)

As stated, this is in the todo.
