SolarSailWiki Destructuring

SolarSailWiki currently has the same structure as the original www.solarsails.info site. A project is presently underway to remove the hierarchy that was used and replace it with a flat database of articles that have [[Category:...]] tags for grouping common topics, like books, together. Category:Books is the first to receive this treatment. The Books page will soon be replaced by the category, and all references changed (e.g. in the People article) changed. Category:People is another in progress. The benefits of this change will be to split up some page into individual articles, make creation & organization of articles easier, and simplify references between Wiki articles.
