Just to add two cents worth.  I rarely, very rarely, go to the 
"unofficial" Gentoo wiki.  To put it simply, its not supported by the 
Gentoo organization itself.  When it comes to my system, I want people 
that I know use Gentoo and understand how it works or that the info is 
from the official Gentoo Docs.

I may be able to contribute to the official Gentoo wiki when the need 
arises but I doubt I would ever do that on the current unofficial wiki.

Just my two cents worth for the day.  Back to my hole.
