## Remaining Work

### Medium Priority
- [ ] Review and update outdated content (add "Last Updated" dates)
- [ ] Create missing documentation files
- [ ] Add link validation to CI/CD pipeline

### Low Priority
- [ ] Standardize naming conventions (consider for new files only)
- [ ] Evaluate splitting very large files
- [ ] Standardize README files across project

---

## Impact

### Before
- 60+ files in main docs/ directory
- 30+ redundant/overlapping files
- Multiple broken links
- Poor organization
- Difficult navigation

### After
- ~40 well-organized files in main docs/ directory
- Clear structure with logical groupings
- All broken links fixed
- Improved navigation and discoverability
- Single source of truth for each topic

---

## Next Steps

1. **Review Updated Documentation** - Verify all changes and navigation improvements
2. **Update Internal Links** - Ensure all cross-references are updated
3. **Continue with Medium Priority Items** - Review outdated content, create missing docs
4. **Implement Maintenance Practices** - Add "Last Updated" dates, establish review schedule
