Candidates for new labels:
 
* '''[[KB_Article_Survey_for_Community_Platform_Migration#Media.2C_music.2C_and_sound|Media, music, and sound]]''' - too specific?
* '''[[KB_Article_Survey_for_Community_Platform_Migration#Troubleshooting|Troubleshooting]]''' - this doesn't seem terribly useful as a label. Some of this can go into Answers.
* '''[[#Technical|Operating system, hardware, and network]]'''
* [[#Performance|Performance]]


'''NOTE: There are 180 articles total'''.
