A specific topic of conversation is how much of the advice should be in the document itself as opposed to linked sources.
It could also use more OS diversity. After reading it, you can probably guess which *nix flavors I'm familiar with.
Enjoy, Libertas
I would add the following advice:
Don't store identity keys on the hard disk. Keep them offliner. Use a ramdisk for /var/lib/tor/keys/ and copy keys to it via scp before starting your tor instance. Remove it from the ramdisk after startup. So the keys cannot be easily taken during unexpected downtimes.
