While writing this, I also noticed there were quite a few warnings from mkdocs about dead links. I've taken a few minutes to fix them up as well[2]. If anyone has a few minutes, I'd be extremely grateful if you could merge them both.

If we don't clone the repo, we're less likely to see the warnings from mkdocs about deadlinks and might also turn away potential contributors. If possible, I'd like to propose that the presentations be hosted elsewhere and be linked from the documentation site (without breaking existing URLs). I'm also happy to host it on a separate git repo that is exclusively used for presentations. Does anyone have any strong opinions on the matter?

I talked a long time ago about trying to have a repo for presentations. 
Some generic ones that could be used by a "speaker network" was 
something we once tried to put together.

Either way, whether they stay attached to the documentation (I agree 
they shouldn't) or they're moved into a new repo, it should use large 
file storage[3] to keep the repo size reasonable.
