Well, start off easy -
Just add sections/sub-sections to the index page(s) with links to posts you found helpful.

NOTE: The "big thing" about the Wiki pages used as model indexes (indices) -
There you can represent the many-to-one relationship.

hardware -> K5 -> serial port -> a post on setting up the serial port
hardware -> PW2 -> serial port -> same post as above
hardware -> KT2 -> serial port -> same post as above
etc. etc.

Our 'select threads by prefix' feature at the top of the forum index handles the one-to-many relationship.

- - - - -

so to also answer an earlier question: "Where should I index the Windows/Putty/SSH HowTo?"
Ah, everywhere it applies (an entry in each of the model indices) -
Plus its own specific entry of Tools -> End User Tools -> Network Access -> Windows SSH
(The last reference chain does not exist (yet) - I am trying to get someone to take keyboard in hand and do that as a worked example).

The wiki (any of them) is one of the classic cases of "keyboard fear" -
but after doing one or two entries - the fear goes away.
It is real hard to damage a wiki - anything entered can be reverted and/or changed later.
