To start this page off I've added initial headings. Feel free to add random thoughts, half-baked ideas, whatever. While editing, a line starting with an asterisk will be rendered as a bullet point.

Organisation and general points

Should we split any of the sections up, for example, cleaning situations into classes of device? When we've got a decent list the answer might be clearer. --Philip (talk) 09:56, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
