- middleware.md: the 'default detector' link used #instance-wide-defaults; the heading is 'Instance-wide default detector' - the advanced/reference landing pages linked an ../installation/ directory that does not exist in docs/content; dropped the dead bullets (deployment content lives under getting-started)
