Keeping in mind that Replicant cannot suggest and/or document ways of
installing/maintaining non-free software, this has a section of its own
in the wiki [1].
IIRC, you have been given wiki editing rights. If not, please remind me
to do so.
Also, I'd like to point out that in the case of a freely-licensed
application not being present on F-Droid or on any other
free-software-friendly repo, then it's more correct and sustainable to
apply for the inclusion of such application upstream (be it F-droid or
any other), rather than suggesting a quick workaround (e.g. to download
the apk somewhere else).

Well, this is ultimately up to the original authors of forum posts.
There are no appointed forum maintainers.
I am one of the few that can edit other people's posts, but I don't
intend to apply for this task, as it would be EXTREMELY time-consuming.
It would be much more sustainable if the authors themselves modified the
title accordingly, when they think their question is "solved".

As Joonas pointed out, the git repo for the website is available at [2].
The encouraged way of proposing modifications to the website is to:
- clone the repo
- do your modifications locally
- test them thoroughly
- send a patch to the mailing list

Happy hacking,

Fil
