Description
Patches is our system that allows users to patch working documentation and objects files.
We need the 'edit' tab to read 'edit/patch'. If there are editing restrictions on the page 'Extruder4' in place because it is active docmentation, when the user clicks 'edit', it loads 'patch', tells them they are working on a patch, not the original, and then they can submit their improvement without breaking the working live version. This is more elegant and more powerful than just using the builders section of the wiki.
Background
The hardware build environment for RepRap is currently more complicated than just installing 'gcc' and typing 'make RepRap'.
