Since I setup the redirects earlier this summer, I remember moinmoin's
quirks and can take care of this very quickly tonight.
My only question is do you all want to move the "AMD64" page back to
"Wine64" wholesale, or should I leave the "AMD64" page and just copy all
the text over to "Wine64" for everyone to edit how they want? My logic
in making the "AMD64" page in the first place was that it would
eventually just become development notes (especially for OS-es besides
Linux) and troubleshooting for that architecture. That's why I didn't
bother with anything like an "x86" page.
I pictured user-facing stuff and basic instructions going in other docs
or main wiki-pages, but if the readme is going to link regularly to the
wiki, I can definitely see the value in a "Wine64" page. Does everyone
want to dump the "AMD64" page for notes too though?
