Hello.  I have noted a number (more than 15) of small problems with Emacs'
documentation.  For example, [[info:emacs#Yes or No Prompts]] has these two
problems:
1. It swaps M-v with C-v.
2. In the last paragraph it says:
   #+BEGIN_QUOTE
   use the history commands ‘M-p’ and ‘M-f’, etc.
   #+END_QUOTE
   It probably meant M-n instead of M-f.

Should I report one bug for all the problems?  Or should I report one bug for
each affected manual section or docstring?

Regards

For such minor problems, I think even a single report with all of them
would be OK.

Thanks.

OK.  I sent a similar email to the Org Mode mailing list.  I had many
Org doc problems to report.  Yesterday I reported the first batch,
which took me several hours to prepare.  Later I will report the
remaining Org doc problems, and only then I will report the general
Emacs doc problems.
