The MediaWiki installation guide is in a very sad state, please help make some sense out of it. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Current_issues/Installation_guide_consolidation In this thread I show it's composed of * 7 logical steps, * 8 supposed main manual pages, * 27+10 subitems, * countless platform-specific instructions, all very loosely coordinated (to use an euphemism).

Please. I made this request some time ago after we rewrote the installer.
The platform-specific stuff needs the most cutting. It's mostly duplication of info that's not even platform-specific.
