[documentation] 10 most commented pages

[puregin]

It looks to me like people are using the comments as a forum,
to ask general questions and get support.

This creates a lot of noise.

Any thoughts on how we can focus the comments to
material which

     1) provides corrections or improvements to
the page contents, or

     2) provides new material related to the page

Some quick ideas, off the top of my head, for discussion

   * better guidelines for comments
   * moderated comments (author as moderator?)
   * quicklinks to forums (esp. for snippets, e.g.)
   * some kind of quick voting interface so
      people don't feel compelled to leave 'thank you'
      comments (nice as they are)
   * perhaps a different style of display/presentation?

   * administrative 'features':
      * quicklink to 'move to forum'
      * outdent, indent, up and down 'buttons'
         to manipulate comments in the hierarchy
