OK there are a LOT of pages with EPEL information on them which are just plain wrong or dead in some way. I would like to get rid of these as a first pass so we can look at what is left over afterwords to see what would be a good cleanup afterwords.
Please review these and see if there is any information that should be put in a more condensed form elsewhere?

Seems fine to remove to me.
The stuff about updates staying in testing for two weeks still seems relevant. Not sure if it is anywhere else.

I *think* the ContributorStatusNo was partially useful. The idea being that if you want a package in EPEL and the maintainer was on this list you didn't have to bug them first before putting in a SCM request. I suppose now you can simply put in a branch request in pkgdb though, so probably even less useful currently.

Thank you for the feedback on this.

The problem is that the document is pre-bodhi and so doesn't fit the current way updates are pushed. The current documents to cover updates are:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_Updates_Policy https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_incompatible_upgrades_policy
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ContributorStatus https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ContributorStatus/ja https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ContributorStatusYes https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ContributorStatusNo

It also contains a lot of people who aren't active in Fedora anymore and people who might have changed their minds. I think that we have pkgdb and other tools supplants this.
I picked up most of these documents by looking at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:EPEL I expect that is the top of the list as there are probably documents with no EPEL tag that people think are canonical. If you or anyone else know of any, please let me know.
