Hello,

I have made significant changes to the document to improve it,
thus marking the previous patch "obsolete".

Thank you for your comments,

Review of attachment 302870 [details] [review]:

Petr: It's clear that Jana uses a different page as a template for this one because the parts which are common between a number of the sysadmin guide pages use good style. Unfortunately, all of Jana's additions uses a different style. Petr, why did you let this through the review?

I would like the documentation to be as non-intimidating as possible to newcomers, of which keeping to a consistent style is a large part. This page now needs tidying at the very least. New pages especially should be in a good condition when they get committed for the first time.

It's now been over 2 years that there have been issues with poor quality reviews. Either the quality of the reviews needs to improve to match the rest of the team or you should not review new pages. Poor pages being let through review cause more work for the rest of the team, which is problematic as there is already strain on the team because of other time commitments.

Jana: please include the bug number and the reasoning for the new page in the commit message. Also, please make sure to use the same indentation style as the rest of the project. The rest of the comments are in-line.

Jana: also, are online accounts enabled or disabled by default?
