Question is: should we remove it from the site until someone steps 
forward to maintain it (and provides a corrected version)?

Apart from technical details, the lines like:

" Was this section helpful? Why not Donate $2.50?" 

is too much irritating and gives a feeling of some fund raising stunt.

I too feel that such kind of articles should be removed from the
Mainstream TLDP Documents,corrected of all the mistakes
And then put back again.  Kindly move it to Unmaintained.
