This is a convenience, not the safeguard - - step 4 is the safeguard. - -3. **Delete the upstream's demo corpus once, on your own `main`.** - - Everything under `kb/` and `raw/` that came with the clone is the upstream's content, not - yours. Remove it with `wikitool rm --page` (never `rm -rf`: `rm` de-links each page from the - rest of the wiki, and a plain delete leaves dead wikilinks and broken citations behind), then - `index rebuild`, `sources rebuild-index`, `lint`. - - This is a one-time cut.
