The only comments I would add a

1. Belgian Wilton's are the worst at shrinkage. Unless you are very
careful it is very likely to shrink using HWE. If you know you have a
Belgian Wilton probably best to get a pro in to clean it or use a
'dry' cleaning method.

If you do decide to use HWE on a Belgian Wilton take care not to over
wet it. Probably best to go over it a few more times than make it too
wet.

2. Place a plastic bag under the legs of wooden furniture. Sometimes
the dye in the wood can leech out into the damp carpet and is a
nightmare to remove.

3. The FAQ mentions that damp carpets are slippery. I'd also mention
to take extra care when walking from a damp carpet to a hard floor
(Lino/laminate or whatever). Your feet pick up moisture and can make
walking on a hard floor very tricky!
