Agree that short descriptions are appropriate for insiders, but there was 
discussion before how to make listing shorter and easier to navigate and 
present is what we came up after few iterations. 

Not all lists are for new users, so few that are or might be, need extended 
descriptions and link them with main template:
 [[Mail list descriptions#opensuse | more ...]]
 [[Mail list descriptions#opensuse-wiki | more ...]]
etc, and in:
  Mail list descriptions#opensuse
This is support list for installation and configuration issues, from operating 
system and applications to issues with particular hardware. 
Help is provided by other users, some open source enthusiasts, other 
professionals in IT industry, but here they all act on their own time, which 
has to be taken in consideration writing the question. Issue description 
should be detailed to some extent, like SUSE version, computer name .... 

What do you think about idea?
