,,, after you replaced wiki:Glossary by a link to Guide/Glossary which had only half of its content. ;-) And I reinserted your complements after the revert. > It is true that I have changed things you’ve written, to improve their > English grammar and readability.

I apologize for that. I will be more careful in the future. It seems, we both dislike the current state of that page after a few years of uncontrolled grows. Probably we should split it in something like How to use Git How to use Github How to submit improvements That might need more discussion. My suggestion for Wiki collission: When you get the collission meassage, copy your changeset to the talk page of the other user and ask him to apply it. If you agree, this yould be written to Wiki_Tips or better a new page Wiki_Policy. > > David Frank _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
