Better to remove reference to links, than have bad links. It is good to know 
which are bad.

I didn't 'generalize' anything.

Can you be more specific?  Did you *read* the contents of the

do.

The 404 page suggests that 'broken links etc' should be reported. Hence,
I went through all top-level links and posted the results:

Clicking on 'forked from Debian' yields a 'not found' page with the
following text:

[404 page text]

The "shouldn't happen" link goes to some portal registration
page. As does the 'devuan-www' issues link. As does the 'report
it to devuan www link'. The sitemap link renders the same 404
page.

The other two 2nd level package links go to the 404 page.

That's a specific (and not general) statement about a bunch of broken
links.

This is indeed one of the sections that remain to write.  Generalizing
like you did is useless and misguiding.  Don't forget that this is the
BETA site of the BETA, so it's normal that a house in-the-making doesn't
behave like a finished house.

More generally, complaints are received at the level of their worth:
zero.  Help is wanted and welcome.

Clicking on 'forked from Debian' yields a 'not found' page with the
following text:

,
| Document Not Found
| 
| You may have:
| followed a broken link: please report to the originating site.
| mistyped the URL: check your location bar for typos and retry.
| 
| We may have:
| forgotten to redirect a moved link (shouldn’t happen)
| not written the content yet! (See devuan-www issues)
| 
| We strive to keep our links working. If you found the error while
| browsing devuan.org, please take a moment to report it to devuan-www.
| 
| We also have a sitemap for robots.
`

The "shouldn't happen" link goes to some portal registration page. As
does the 'devuan-www' issues link. As does the 'report it to devuan www
link'. The sitemap link renders the same 404 page.

The other two 2nd level package links go to the 404 page.

If that's a problem (I've long stopped trying to use the Debian page to
find anything instead of using Google to search for keywords which means
it might be), why not organize that into an easy-to-use overview?

Please do not forget that there is already plenty of documentation
about Debian, which has been accumulated over the past two decades. It
is true that most of it is dispersed into dozens of wikis, but I think
that the reference manual is a decent piece of doc. There is no need
to replicate that lot of work, at least at the moment, since most of
what is valid for Debian is also valid for Devuan, except
systemd-related stuff.
