TBurmeister triaged this task as Medium priority.

Looks good! A few suggestions:

  • The second sentence ("It provides web servers...") is quite long and complex. I suggest simplifying it to a short list of things users might be interested in, in the simplest terms possible. Maybe just "web servers, data storage, and a job processing system"?
  • See my feedback on T344628#9125281 about the phrasing of "provide support for collaborative management of software source code"
  • In the third sentence (Toolforge makes it easier...), I think you could remove "running webservices" since it is covered by the previous sentence and isn't as much of a use case as the other three in the list. See my feedback on T344628#9125281. If you want to keep it, make sure it is consistently either one word or two across the two pages.
  • Can "Create or deploy your own tools on Toolforge" be simplified? "Host tools on Toolforge"? "Create tools on Toolforge"?
  • In "Info for administrators of the Toolforge platform itself.", I suggest expanding "info" to "information", and either making it a complete sentence or removing the period.
  • I assume that you'll remove the Tracked in Phabricator template before publishing, but adding a note here that I don't think it's needed on the final page.
