Title:

How do I split a Repair Guide into prerequisite components?

Text:

How do I split steps out of a guide and put them into a new guide?

The [link|https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Philips+Wake-Up+HF3531-01+Disassembly/117271|HF35xx Disassembly|new_window=true] originally included not only opening the housing but removing one of the internal components (inner lamp). I continued that structure in describing how another component could be removed (main PCB).

However, it doesn't make sense to do it that way since the same steps are referenced as a [link|https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/prereq/117271|prerequisite|new_window=true] in a the [link|https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Philips+Wake-Up+HF3520+Power+supply+repair/130183|HF3520 Power Supply Repair|new_window=true] guide which needs to remove the main PCB, not the internal lamp.

Ideally, I'd like to structure the prerequisite dependencies something like this:

# ***Disassembly***: Should only have steps for opening the housing
# ***Main PCB Removal***: Depends on Disassembly
# ***µC Board Removal***: Depends on Main PCB Removal
# ***VE Board Removal***: Depends on Main PCB Removal
# ***VE Capacitor Repair***: Depends on VE Board Removal
# ***Lamp Removal***: Depends on VE Board Removal
# ***Control Panel***: Depends on µC Board Removal and VE Board Removal
# ***Power Supply Repair***: Depends on Main PCB Removal
# ***Speaker Repair***: Depends on Disassembly
# ***Power Jack Repair***: Depends on Main PCB Removal
