The documentation is targeted at end users. Not just Extras contributors.

While project documentation is under these pages, we havent been using
docs which are multi level deep when we are targeting end users. Extras
has innumerous sub pages and related documentation in the wiki which
arent listed in the main Extras pages and I want to see that kind of
things fixed soon. Categories help in organizing the pages while keeping
information easily accessible in the same level. Just remember to use
them for new pages being created and we can use it to keep track and
organize it properly. After we deploy a CMS system in fedoraproject.org
we can rethink this a bit.
