__The HOWTOs mirrored here from [TLDP] (and other sources?) are being removed__, due to the following concerns:

* Most of them are so poorly adapted to wiki markup that they are completely useless.
* They're bound to go out of synch with the originals, either because they get outdated as the principal version of the HOWTO is updated or due to editing on the wiki. Changes on the wiki will not propagate upstream either.
* It doesn't make much sense to put HOWTOs in a wiki as the two concepts have completely contrary strengths. Wiki thrives on synergy of pages, while a big HOWTO aims to be a comprehensive cookbook.

__If you linked to a HOWTO copy on the wiki and your link now points to a deleted page__, please link to the principal copy on [TLDP]'s site instead. A quick [Google] search on the HOWTO's title will give you the proper location.
