> Congratulations with the wiki migration. It was 99.9% perfect. Well 
> done, no doubt about that!

> Comparing https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/YumUpgradeFaq and 
> http://fedoraproject.org/wikiold/YumUpgradeFaq I can see that old "Tips" 
> boxes with several lines has been migrated to literally 
> "YumUpgradeFaq/code" and a couple of fragments on the talk/discussion page.

> It is OK that formatting wasn't migrated 100%, but it is not acceptable 
> that content is lost. For this specific page I can fix it manually, but 
> it would be very sad if content was lost randomly all over the wiki. I 
> suggest that the scope of the problem is analyzed and an appropriate 
> solution is found. A solution compromise could be to programmatically 
> add a cleanup-request and a note with the lost content to the affected 
> pages.
