The wiki is a collaborative tool. If we hesitate to correct, edit and probably
also remove other peoples entires, the wiki ends up as an ecclectic piece of
text which helps nobody.
My "favorite" page is this:

This looks like a chat log. I mean, for someone looking for help, this site is
just irritating.
I see your point, but perhaps it helps make people more self reliant.
If I saw that, I would say "never mind, I'll figure it out for myself". :-)
Something like Tips/MathMacros needs to be updated (since we now have
menu and toolbar control over macros), but I would think the existing
content could be kept after verifying that it still works, even if it is
arguably not the most efficient approach anymore.
Maybe. However, we should try to clean this up where possible. At least as far
as the FAQ is concerned, we should really try to get the thing usable.
I added some notes on how I think the FAQ should look like:
http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/FAQFAQ
Great job with that!
