Without having seen the wiki pages, I can't be sure, but I suspect
they contain some "dated" information which would be wrong or confusing
if it were just mechanically renamed to new pages.  For example, there
are probably lots of pages with future references to this that will
happen, yet the 2003 convention is of course in the past.  

I suspect what Steve wants is people who are willing/able to pull
out any information that *still has relevance*, and remove the remainder.

Yes, the request is ambiguous, but so are wikis. ;-)
