+## Building and Tests
+
 There are three main components:
 
 - backend API server and database (in Rust)
 - API client libraries and bots (in Python)
 - front-end web interface (in Python; built on API and library)

 Automated integration tests run on Gitlab CI (see `.gitlab-ci.yml`) on the
 Internet Archive's internal (not public) infrastructure.

-## Identifiers
-
-Fatcat entity identifiers are 128-bit UUIDs encoded in base32 format. Revision
-ids are also UUIDs, and encoded in normal UUID fashion, to disambiguate from
-edity identifiers.
-
-Python helpers for conversion:
-
-    import base64
-    import uuid

-    def fcid2uuid(s):
-        s = s.split('_')[-1].upper().encode('utf-8')
