What do you think about merging both entries of the manual in the main menu of the page and let it display a page in this vein:

* If you computer is already running Guix, running `info guix` is probably the best way to read the current documentation
* If unsure, the "stable" documentation is probably not the one you are looking for
* You might also want to download the [[https://guix.gnu.org/guix-refcard.pdf][Guix reference card]]
* Or have a look at the cookbook, accessible via `info guix-cookbook` or [[https://guix.gnu.org/cookbook/][online]].
It contains tutorials, how-to guides and examples contributed by the Guix community which show you how to use the system and its collection of packages to achieve common and not-so-common goals users may have.
* There is also a [[https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix][wiki]] & [[https://guix.gnu.org/en/videos/][videos]]
* If you need help, there are the IRC, the mailing lists and their archives available at [[https://guix.gnu.org/en/contact/][guix.gnu.org/en/contact]]
?
Am I right in assuming that the stable version of the manual is only useful before the first pull?
Is there a way to display the reference card on the system without grabbing the pdf? And: it would be nicer if the orientation of the pages in the pdf was rotated
Kind Regards,
Pascal

Would you have seen a warning at the top of the page, or did you click straight through to a section/chapter? Consider this low-budget telemetry to find out how better to point users to other options ;-)
