Can someone please check on page 26 of this revised chapter. There is an error on a cross-reference, but I don't know what the correct reference should be. Please tell me so I can fix it! I am almost finished checking and fixing the formatting in this chapter.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Base Guide 6.4 or 7.0
I agree with the suggestion to do a quick update from v6.2 to v6.4, with only one review necessary.

[libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Base Guide 6.4 or 7.0
Now that the Base Guide 6.2 has been published, I am thinking about the next version of Base Guide. As it has been decided that we would rewrite the complete Base Guide for version 7.0, so it would take time. Since v6.4 has got almost no change in Base, so I propose that all the chapters shouldn't go for 2 reviews. Only the chapters with significant changes should go for the two review system. Rest of the chapters can be just updated by me and declared as published. They can be checked for formatting errors if anyone wants but they should be quick.This will publish the 6.4 book quickly and would give us more time to work on 7.0 book. Another way can be that we simply ommit the v6.4 book. I don't want to go with the second way for a reason:- All the guides including GS, WG, CG, DG, IG, MG are going to have a v6.4(I am not sure about the impress book). Since 6.4 is the last member of 6.x series, so it would be good if every guide has a version 6.4. So, Even if we have no change in Base in 6.4, we should publish it. For v7.0, I have a long plan which I will send in an seperate email.

[libreoffice-documentation] Augmenting help for use of LibreOffice
Hi. I would like to contribute to help or guidance in use of LibreOffice where I can see it assisting current users to simplify tasks or filling in a hole for those who may be more familiar with MSO. Not so much explaining how LibreOffice functions but help about using LibreOffice to complete specific tasks, especially for less experienced users (of which we have a company full). I mentioned in a post to this list a week or so ago an alternative process for creating documents with data inserted from a spread sheet. Pulkit kindly replied and suggested a wiki page, the wiki site directed me to https://help.libreoffice.org/. I downloaded the source, checked out https://newdesign.libreoffice.org/xhpeditor/index.php and decided it was relatively straight forward to edit a page. I then wondered about the philosophy behind wiki vs help documentation so checked the MSO help pages on line and found they were relatively interested in helping users achieve tasks. I understand there can't be a free for all, https://help.libreoffice.org/ would seem a logical umbrella for all help content but there could be a good case for wiki pages referenced from help pages. Then there is the issue of how do users find help. Again referencing from a search in help.libreoffice.org seems logical. I would like some guidance on where to find the appropriate place to contribute. Is it simply a case of presenting a proposal for documentation to this list or emailing it to documentation at libreoffice dot org as referenced at https://documentation.libreoffice.org/ and waiting for feedback.

[libreoffice-documentation] Technical Writing and Google Seasons of Doc 2020
Hi Team I submitted TDF application for Mentoring Organization of the Google Seasons of Doc 2020. A wiki page on the possible projects for technical writing is available at [1]. The list is not closed and accepts suggestions and additions until end of this week. The current set of subjects are - The Calc Functions guide in Wiki. - A review of the API documentation aimed to be effective for the average macro coder - E-leaning for Writer - E-learning for Calc If you have other suggestions of projects, please add to the list with a minimal description of deliverables. Note that you can also apply to be the technical writer (TW) for your idea. However, Google use to grant only one slot per year so there will be a selection. When the TW application phase starts, we will ask TW candidates for proposals to address the project they elected to work on. TDF staff will select the best or most effective project and recommend it to Google. We are confident we can select the best project for LibreOffice and for LibreOffice community. In particular I drafted 2 e-learning projects for Writer and Calc under a possible Moodle installation. I admit I am not skilled in e-learning techniques although I participated in a LO project in Brazil 10 year ago and have some ideas about. Mentors interested to address the projects are welcome to step forward.
