That's certainly the logical place for it, and it's the logical format for the Foreigns page of NuVoc.
A beginner might still need a bit more guidance however... I've written a stub page: https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Vocabulary/Debug which I invite someone else to finish who knows *debug* better than I do. How about a simple worked example for how to debug an error in jconsole (or jqt used in a jconsoling way)...? How to do it with Run > Debug ⌘K is best described elsewhere, e.g. under [[Debug]].
