A person to write that article needs detailed knowledge of pkg and the 
Linux package systems.  I don't have that, but would be willing to help 
you develop an outline for the article.  Having a design like that makes 
it easier to write when time and resources are available.

Writing "an article" is hard.  Writing a small section on how deleting 
packages is different between pkg and, say, apt, is much easier.  The 
scope is known.
