For the points a and b, I think you are wrong: these infos are at the
bottom of the page under the title 'See also'
The first pages were based on DistributionReleaseTemplate (see for
exemple the header of the DebianSlink page in the wiki) but they are
made 'by hand'.
I think it's relatively easy to add missing information about LTS from
Squeeze onward.
I done it for Wheezy.
