Cool.
This example deserves its place in the FAQ itself,
in my humble unsolicited opinion :)

Pity.
If there was a FAQ install set or `pkg_add openbsd-faq` package,
I'd wholeheartedly install one on my laptop


>  wget -r -l 2 --wait=5 --page-requisites --timestamping --convert-links www.openbsd.org/faq

The command above doesn't scope itself to /faq
and downloads parent dir stuff as well.

I'd suggest the following command:

wget \
   --recursive           \
   --level=2             \
   --no-parent           \
   --no-host-directories \
   --cut-dirs=1          \
   --wait=5              \
   --timestamping        \
   --reject robots.txt   \
   www.openbsd.org/faq/

You may alternatively wish to `pkg_add wget2` and use that.

After it has finished, I get:
pkg_add colortree && colortree

`--convert-links` doesn't work as intended for me in both wget and wget2.
But links in the FAQ are already relative and
don't need any treatment for local offline consumption
