Good job, gbWilly. It looks good.


I think there should be some additional changes made; not specifically regarding what you did but generally.

1. The first link in the Learning Gambas section should be "Getting Started" linking to the (very well organized) topics page:
https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/topic

2. The "Getting Started" page, linked on the topics page, should:
  a. include a link to the Gambas Object Model in the suggested documents section, and
  b. have sections/links for/to (at least) datatypes, operators, and control structures.

And BTW, it appears the Important Notes page (https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/readme) needs to be updated/corrected. It still links to sourceforge: "Go to http://gambas.sourceforge.net to get more information [...]" And, the "natural string comparison algorithme" [typo] list item links to "sourcefrog.net/projects/natsort/". I could be wrong, but I think that should be sourceforge.net.

And, we have /three/ naming conventions pages:
https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/naming (the original?)
https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/namingconvention (written by Fabien Bodard)
https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/convnaming (If I recall correctly, this one is a consolidation of the first two by Gianluigi with input from list members.)

Could we decide on using just one of those to help minimize confusion?


Perhaps others have different or additional opinions?
