Just click on "Edit' in the upper-write of the Wiki page. It would be great if you took a crack at improving the page so others don't run into the same problems you did. If you are not confident in your edit, feel free to write to lyx-us...@lists.lyx.org if you have any specific questions. This list is more for LyX's built-in documentation (in the Help menu). Thanks for the help! Scott

I hope this is the correct email address to make suggestions for the documentation. I downloaded the examples on http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BiblatexStyles and found they confused me (trying to get BibLaTeX-biber working with classicthesis.sty, which I have now managed). The issues are covered in http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex, but I did not expect the example files to contain them as 'errors'. May I suggest the following is added to the Note: above the examples and maybe emphasise as Mandatory Note: because I missed it somehow, extending the debugging permutations. 1: The language encoding in the example files is set to Unicode (ucs-extended)(utf8x) not utf8 so it gives error incompatible package 'ucs' error upon typesetting. Set language to utf8. 2: The example files leave the bibliography processor as "Default" and it did not generate a bibliography without biber, instead only printed the bibtexkey in the intext link. Set bibliography processor to biber. I am running LyX2.1.2-MiKTeX on Win7 Enterprise, but believe the above are controlled by the LyX file and my comments are general. My comments may not apply if biber is not being used, but I am a no expert. Thankyou for the helpful site, Alan Belle University of Tasmania Electronic Communications Policy (December, 2014).
