Although I have been experiencing some bad moments with wikis nowadays, specially since I don't have stable connection to the Internet, that said, I must note that: manual is like a wiki, with added benefit that: a) manual is readable offline, while wiki needs internet; b) wiki pages might *not* correspond to the version of your local copy of the software; c) both wiki and manual allow contributions, but manual doesn't dictate that one has to do so through a web browser, you can even do so by sharing files through thumb drives, emails, forum posts, NNTP/netnews, whatever; d) you don't have to have an account in any website to suggest contributions to current manual, you can send it to any member of project in any means of communication and transfer that the member has available. In any case, both manuals and wikis allow contributions. If there is something that needs change, then perhaps someone needs to send a patch to improve the manual. I hope this helps clarify things. :D --=20 - https://libreplanet.org/wiki/User:Adfeno - Palestrante e consultor sobre /software/ livre (n=C3=A3o confundir com gratis). - "WhatsApp"?
