I don’t have any objection to referring to the wiki (or the Help or the mailing lists, for that matter), but I think the issue and practice of referring to other documentation is not clearly defined as a matter of principle. It would probably be useful to have some guidelines on when and where to make such references, and to add them to the documentation consistently. I know that there is a generic “check these other sources” note somewhere at the beginning of the Guide, but I suspect that there are numerous sections that could benefit with more specific cross referencing. > Regards, > Adrien > _______________________________________________ > gnucash-user mailing list > gnucash-user@gnucash.org > To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: > https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user > If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see > https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. > ----- > Please remember to CC this list on all your replies. > You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
