* Finish LUKS guide , and probably split it up into simpler and more advanced guides

**[[LUKS]]

*** for a bit of context as to why i wanted to write this in the first place, someone asked me "if i want the best security, how do i setup a LUKS partition?" and based on that question, I assume that just telling them "the defaults are fine" would not be a particularly satisfying answer. so i did my best to research everything, and tried to compile an exhaustive list of reasons why the defaults are OK. i went in assuming that there might be like, some algorithm that has a very strong performance cost for better security, but ultimately concluded, that wasn't really the case . but like , only after trying to understand everything.

*** "a good amount of this information is pulled from [link]" by itself sounds kinda weird, like why should someone read your post instead of just going to that link immediately? perhaps "The [cryptsetup FAQ](...) is a great in-depth resource on all the available security options, but it's pretty long and complex. This post will cover the basics so you can get set up quickly with a reasonably secure system."

**** i don't remember where i read that "ZFS and BTRFS will help with the corruption issues of XTS" they may not have even been talking about LUKS directly and i just got confused (it was probably Wikipedia)

*** i guess to expand on this, if you have a good idea of what your target audience is then you should be evaluating everything in the post from that point of view. suppose you are a beginner who doesn't know anything about crypto. "XTS has vulnerabilities" and "AES-256 is post quantum" are meaningless to u without further context. maybe the context for those things isn't the point of the post, but in that case u could maybe link to further resources or have some further explanation in footnotes

== Needs Research / Implementation ==

*** DRAFT : [[User:Everlastingred]]

** TODO item template? probably to gather information from relevant pages but some TODOs will likely not have a page? dunno, something to think about

** tiered information.

*** We are now using [[Template:Guide]] and sub-pages (use 'SomeGuide/advanced' etc with a slash) to determine a guide's tier and link to other tiers of the same guide.
