Sharepoint sucks where I am because IT can't leave our URLs alone. thus there is old information out that that would be useful if I could find it. And other old information that I tried to update but I couldn't find it anymore.

I long ago made a personal rule that when someone asked a question I would answer by pointing them to the documentation. If the documentation doesn't exist or isn't up to date I'd fix it first. So long the the URLs (and thus the index pages) don't change I had a large store of useful information. This is the only way I have found to ensure document stores don't gather cruft.
