No need for individual actions on machine generated pages

[WardCunningham]

Our convention is to add one create action to the journal indicating that the complete story was created all at once. It is actually rather tricky to do otherwise because by default, the add action that does not specify what it follows is assumed to go at the beginning. Without this a sequence of adds will create a page inverted from what is expected.

For a useful example consider this generated page in Mehaffy's pattern language: http://npl.wiki/urban-patterns.html

With this journal and this page json.
