Hi traumschule, thanks for all your work on this.

I don't actually have write access to this repo. I just inquired about
getting it, but I wonder if someone else can get started on reviewing on
merging these PRs. Phoul maybe?

It is the Tor Browser manual only, yes. I don't know where to include
information about torifying apps, but I am inclined to hold off on that
and leave it on the wiki for now because I don't think it's a priority.

They should not. Anything related to Tor relays should be part of the
Tor relay guide:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide which will
later become part of the community portal. But we will port all that
content over.

Yes! It would be helpful if you or someone else could go through the FAQ
and look for any questions that are not currently on the support portal,
and then we can make sure that those get merged.

This is also something that will end up on one of the new portals,
though I am not sure which one but likely community.torproject.org. I am
cautious about adding anything new to the old website since we are
working on content for the new one. So maybe you want to help once we're
ready to create that community.tpo content.
