 Project:      Documentation
 Version:      <none>
 Component:    Documentation in CVS
 Category:     tasks

People said updating the help text found in the modules was challanging
so this alternative method was established that allowed for many more
people to provide edits and updates and these edits/updates to be
applied to the modules themselves.  This allows for the handbook to
remain in sync with the modules and the modules to link accuratly with
the handbook.


Is it possible for you to provide the text of your changes here?

webchick asked me to create a new documentation issue now that #53870
[1] has been committed.  the patch from comment #22 [2] in the thread
(applied as revision includes a big re-write of the menu module's help
text in various places, care of much back and forth between zen and
myself.  webchick tells me there's a (to my perspective somewhat
strange) procedure where the handbook text on drupal.org is used to
automatically generate the help text in the core modules.  so, the menu
handbook page [3] is hereby out of date/sync with the new, better text
in the code.  someone w/ doc privs needs to keep them in sync for
reasons more clear to webchick than myself. ;)


thanks!

p.s. sorry if "documentation in cvs" is the wrong component for this,
but that seemed like the closest match...

sorry, that "(applied as revision" was supposed to be "(applied as
revision 1.73 in modules/menu.module)".  i'm trying to do too many
things at once right now...
