Were obsolete wiki pages really obsolete? #15058

Description

@SimonSapin

@cmr, you recently removed a bunch of wiki pages as "obsolete". Were they really all obsolete? In particular, I remember finding useful information on Note-build-system. Does another page replace it now?

(I didn’t find a web UI for the wiki’s history, but this part of git log --stat on a clone of the backing repository.)
