These "make a chart" or "connect to" are 'how to' topics that seem to fit in the topic 'Learning Gambas'.

The other option is to refer to the 'How to's' as a whole, but there are a lot of topics that have nothing to do with learning Gambas, but are aimed at for example developers of gambas or contributors to gambas.

And Lee mentioned some things that could do with some reorganizing and I have to agree with that. Lee mentioned the topics page, which is actually a good example of how to bring topic together in a good overview. Maybe a same 'index page' with links to all relevant 'learning pages' (like the "make a chart" etc.) on the wiki can be created and next linked on the front page next to the 'books' and 'gambOS'.

Whenever a new learning type of page is created on the wiki, all it needs is an index page update. Let me know what you think about this method. If you like it I'll implement it.
