Wiki: reorganise into dt7/ and sd/ subdirs (per-course namespaces) Moves all current pages into per-course subdirectories so each cohort gets a clean namespace with its own URL prefix and natural sidebar grouping: dt7/ Year 7 Digital Technologies (9 pages + 2 attachment folders) sd/ VCE Software Development (was SAT/, with C01 + Resources) New top-level structure: Home.md ← lobby (2 doors) dt7/Year 7 Hub.md ← Y7 cohort landing sd/VCE Software Development Hub.md ← VCE cohort landing dt7/* and dt7/<page>/ ← Y7 pages + attachments sd/* and sd/C01/ ← VCE pages + attachments Link rewrites: - All [[Page]] cross-links qualified to [[dt7/Page]] for the moved Y7 pages - All image refs /<page>/img.png updated to /dt7/<page>/img.png - Every Y7 leaf page now ends with "← Back to [[dt7/Year 7 Hub]]" Home.md rewritten as a minimal lobby with 2 entries; the per-cohort hubs do all the curation work. Why dt7/ + sd/: Jeremy expects more courses (Y8, Y9, etc). Subdir layout scales; OtterWiki sidebar will auto-group by directory tree. Cost: 5 way2.cc shortlinks (ca2-ca6) need their target URLs updated to /dt7/<page> paths. Following commit handles that via the way2.cc admin API. ca7-caa point at YouTube directly and don't need touching. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
