I see, thanks!  For scenarios like that, I'm partial to having a unique
entry point for each of those distinct "release" dates.

For example, the release criteria for the main release (DVD + GNOME/KDE
live images) is anchored at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Release_Criteria.

For secondary arches, they definitely don't have to follow the main
release schedule, they'd also get their own criteria entry point.
Perhaps something like ... https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_
%{arch}_Release_Criteria (e.g.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_PowerPC_Release_Criteria and
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_s390x_Release_Criteria).  These
could all be linked from the main page, their respective arch pages and
will be included in Category:Release_Criteria.  The content of the pages
would call the same templates described in scenario#3 or highlight
criteria exceptions described in scenario#2.

For SPINs whose release date isn't *tightly* coupled with the main
release date, they'd each have their own entry point (which would likely
follow the same approach used by arches).  Perhaps something like ...
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_%{spin}_Release_Criteria?

Thoughts/concerns/complaints?

Thanks,
