OK, that's appendix 3 done. One error in the original on p.4: "errors codes".

I'm finding this quite addictive. Which would be the best one to do next?

Draw Guide. Starts here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Draw_Guide

As you can see, the only Draw Guide chapter on the wiki is Chapter 1,
and it has not been divided into topic pages.

Subdividing chapters requires creating chapter TOCs for the right-hand
sidebar, as well as fiddling with page headers, so I would suggest first
wikifying the other chapters, one chapter per wiki page. We can go back
later and subdivide the chapters into topic pages, if we think the
effort is worthwhile.

Or, you are welcome to do the subdivision while wikifying the chapters,
if you would like to give it a try. I generally subdivide at the H1
level (making that the page title), except when several very short, and
related, sections follow each other; then I combine them into one wiki
page.

P.S. Thank you!! for all your work on wikifying the Calc Guide.

Jean, that technique—one page per chapter—looks like a brilliant solution to a very labor-intensive and nuisancy problem. All it needs is the TOC (which I added) in the right place, and a little work on the template or the call to it. I will research and do that.

Speaking as a heavy user of the wiki manuals, I think this approach is more convenient for the user, especially for a reference manual. It's faster and easier to find stuff.
