This wiki template has an issue:
And sometimes this wiki template is
Current woriding:
Open file
{{{filename}}}in an editor with root rights.
Maybe future wording:
Open or create file
{{{filename}}}in an editor with root rights.
But that seems a bit confusing. Not sure how to improve that yet. Maybe there’s an English word which could mean both “open existing file” and/or “create file if it does not exist yet”. Suggestions?

There is a new donation banner end of year campaign. How do you like the new donation banner end of year campaign? It can be seen on most wiki pages such as for example on:
Pages purely designed to get the user started such as homepage whonix.org, Whonix ™ - Anonymous Operating System, Documentation, Download and a few more are using are using wiki template {{hide_all_banners}} (Template:Hide all banners - Whonix) and don’t show the (donation or any) banner(s).

https://www.whonix.org/w/images/6/68/Ubuntu_software_icon.png
Fixed.
https://www.whonix.org/wiki/File:Ubuntu_software_icon.png did not exist.
Went to https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/File:Ubuntu_software_icon.png which is a wiki page (HTML).
Clicked on the real image link https://www.kicksecure.com/w/images/6/68/Ubuntu_software_icon.png
Downloaded using scurl-download to really download the png and not the webp. (Browsers are telling nginx they support webp so these are preferably delivered. But curl has no such feature.)
Uploaded to https://www.whonix.org/wiki/File:Ubuntu_software_icon.png

@HulaHoop This page:
Still need it? if so the version number will keep going outdated leading to broken links.
See what you want to do with it.
Can you turn it into a template and just leave it around just in case?
Added noindex at the top of the page so that it wont be shown in the
search engines/broken link checkers
HulaHoop via Whonix Forum:
Kicksecure and Whonix homepage / wiki have now an improved header.
The footer has also been improved.
The SCAP workbench should be added as a recommendation for Non-Qubes Whonix hardening guide i.e. tighten up host security (not running full remediation which will bork most systems). The GUI has standards that can be loaded for most common Linux distros like Debian etc.

Such as for example:
Feel free to mention it in the documentation. Anyone should feel free to research, contribute to such tools to provide less false-positives, better warning messages or even to the security of Debian, Kicksecure, etc. But unless providing solutions / development contributions, it’s not worth posting about this in the forums.
http://is-not-my.name is offline. So lots of links and the instructions are broken.
Can that wiki page be kept or does it need to be archived? @HulaHoop
