Cassandra Targett commented on SOLR-6520: ----------------------------------------- I've been heads down on another project and am just catching up with this today... bq. you are linking to the WIKI from those same pages already A couple of points of explanation about that: First, those are frequently a legacy thing from when the ref guide was not part of the Solr/Lucene project. Second, the wiki needs to be updated page-by-page to reflect the status of the ref guide as the official documentation for Solr. That's been a year+ -long TODO that we all want but no one has yet had a lot of time for. The thought is that the wiki will become a place where people can add tips & tricks, etc. - stuff that's not "documentation" per se, but still really valuable. When that happens, the links to the wiki make a lot more sense - with some changed wording - and why it's not a huge priority to systematically remove them today. bq. link to the reference guide wherever you have a wiki link right now and mention the future-looking status in brackets. I'm not following exactly - could you give me an example of what you mean? > Documentation web page is missing link to live Solr Reference Guide > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-6520 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6520 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 4.10 > Environment: web > Reporter: Alexandre Rafalovitch > Priority: Minor > Labels: documentation, website > > The [official document page for > Solr|https://lucene.apache.org/solr/documentation.html] is missing the link > to the live Solr Reference Guide.
