Yes, I did.

Yep.

That seems to be a simple case of a page requiring wiki gardening.  Seriously,
if we have to have a FESCo policy to allow the deletion of stale wiki pages
(Feature or not), then we have gone wrong somewhere.

So I suggest we just mark it for deletion and if the Feature owner cares he'll
unmark it.
