Andrew;

Since {{OOo}} is a template changing the visualization would be a good
way to go. The only drawback that I see is that it would change every
page ( currently 2,782) that uses that template and could have a
detrimental effect on the performance of the system.

I did create a similar template {{Documentation/AOO}}, documented in the
Wiki Editing Policy
(https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Wiki_Editing_Policy),
which inserts Apache OpenOffice. If there was an efficient way to
replace {{OOo}} with {{Documentation/AOO}} in the guide pages that might
be a better way to go. Not sure if the wiki editor has a find and
replace function or can utilize regular expressions.
