Vincent, I added a comment on the page with my thoughts (not sure of how
the continue the discussion - in the users group or on the wiki page).
My rationale is in the comment:
I got your email and saw your edits, I am just thinking answering
the question directly and pointing to the documentation would have
been most helpful to me when I was looking.
Interesting before I sent the note to the user's list, I searched
for "xwiki restore deleted document", "xwiki recycle bin"
"xwiki
trash" etc. and did not find the Index Application page. In
addition, I also searched
xwiki.org for "restore deleted page" and
did not find anything.
I think the challenge for me as a newbie is that I do not know the
nomenclature of xwiki yet. I do not know how I (or other newbies)
would have known to look for the Index Application?
What do you think? Hope my merging of our efforts is OK?
However your point about maintaining two sets of documentation would be
a pain and not a good idea. Maybe I am just addressing the wrong
problem. My issue was that I could not find the existing documentation.
I restored your version and just added "on how to restore deleted
pages/attachments."
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
I see you’ve restored your content that I had moved to the Index
Application’s documentation on:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/How+do+I+restore+a+deleted+page+or+…
Do you really believe it’s better to have to maintain 2 places?
My POV was that it’s always easier to maintain a single place and have
the FAQ entry point to the right documentation.
If you think the documentation isn’t good enough at
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Index+Application then
I believe it might be better to edit that page and improve it, WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
