Placing the head `FURTHER READING' at the end of the tutorial, with solely the URL for the Emacs Wiki beneath it, would be good for several reasons: * The Web is a great resource for accurate and erroneous information, referring newcomers to the wiki will help reign searches in. * It appears that the Emacs Wiki is under-read and because under-read, less than optimally (?) maintained. * There exists in the tutorial the head `GETTING MORE HELP' and the succinct introduction to the documentation system of Emacs.
