It's not much use having a list of requirements without which "we  
will close that ticket immediately", pointing us to a wiki page and  
then NOT	HAVING A LIST OF THOSE REQUIREMENTS ON THAT WIKI PAGE.

Also the title "less is more" on that wiki page doesn't make much  
sense. Those are sensible requirements in that section, but you want  
less than that??

And honestly, "me too" will cause the engineers not to look at the  
issue? How about "i can reproduce this, also"? Because if I don't  
have time to provide more info I will happily add an "i can reproduce  
this, also" comment so that you know the bug is not an isolated case.  
I would have thought that would be useful - not as useful as full  
terminal output, but at least some help indicating that the original  
bug report is not a fiction in the mind of a lone nutter. It's  
probably safe to assume I'll only add an "i can reproduce this, also"  
comment if there's only one or two reports of the bug and little  
follow-up, if the description is the same and if I'm following the  
same steps to reproduce it, so really providing that same information  
again isn't beneficial.
