[ask for review]: Contribute hints and tips for three editors
Here is a bunch of hints and tips to assist users when they work with AOO
editors . They are short articles with graphics. Could community members
review them and provide comments to us?
We put them on the MediaWiki, since it is pretty straight forward. But we
have not yet link those articles in the main page category, could anyone
suggest which category is appropriate to add those tips in? Many thanks!
Document hints and tips:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Hints_tips_document
Spreadsheet hints and tips:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Hints_tips_spreadsheet
Presentation hints and tips:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Hints_and_tips_presentation
Best regards

I will move the hints and tips to
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos which is a subcategory of the Documentation page.
Thanks Juergen

it is maybe also a good idea to keep the hierarchical structure and put
all guide/articles under
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/...
We introduced this hierarchical structure for different areas (e.g.
Documentation, API, ...) and it can help to organize the whole on a
further level besides the used category keywords
The title can be shorten by using the
{{DISPLAYTITLE:<your_short_title>}} tag to view only the last part of
the url.
The hierarchical structure can be useful if you want do some automation
with wiki bots...
I personally like this structure but I am not sure what others think
about it. And of course it is handled differently in the wiki.

Thanks I think How-Tos is the best category for those tips. Will link from there.
And we'll change the name range page as suggested. Thanks!

I agree, that all end user help texts should only be in the MediaWiki.
But I wonder, why do you not use the MediaWiki syntax.

The MediaWiki has already a large amount of documentation. Please see
the listing under category Documentation. I think your kind of articles
best fit under category Documentation/How_Tos and can be linked from

Comment for http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Creating_named_ranges
You are mixing named ranges and labels. That is confusing.
For me the shortest way to generate a named range is this:
1. Select the range.
2. Type the name into the 'Name box'.
3. Press Enter-key.

There are some formatting problems:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Creating_cross-references_in_documents
shows a lot of </dt> and </dd> tags
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Reasons_why_a_document_cannot_be_changed
you can see ... You can see the words <samp class="ph
codeph">(read-only)</samp> on the title bar ...
Htlm code not parsed by the wiki?
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Creating_different_headers_for_left_pages_and_right_pages
Usually you don't need two page styles to have different content on
headers or footers: just uncheck the "same content left/right" on the
page style definition.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Using_instant_corrections_in_documents
more html tags
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Working_with_master_document
A good advice is to create the master document and all subdocuments
from same template
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Setting_paragraph_indentations_in_documents
A good advice here is to never mix paragraph indents with numbering
indents: if you build numbered paragraphs it is better to use a
paragraph style without indents, with the numbering style controlling
everything.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Quick_ways_to_insert_lines_and_tables_in_documents
more html tags
For the rest, it seems quite good :)
