+
+any kind of software that has wiki pages on mageia for eg: url links (which is 
+none atm; but then, that's the whole point of this discussion)
+
+
+if i have packaged software (eg: plasma-applet-launchbutton ) which has no URL 
+field, Christiaan Welvaart suggested to put a wiki page up and put that page in 
+the URL field.
+
+I just wonder if this is a good idea or not. i'm sure we don't want any type 
+of software to be put on wiki and in URL fields of packages.
