 i found the wiki structure confusing.

Yes, because this was originally thought as developer page.

 intuitively i will look for these manuals either in
 http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Manuals

Yes, this should be the right place. Could you design this page the way you think it should be? I'll correct then the links in the documentation to this page. (Please leave http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/DocumentationDevelopment as is.)


Please see my previous post... LyX documentation should be located in

        LyX/Documents

I think the problem is that people don't see the link... if you didn't see this link in the sidebar, let me know and we can figure out a way to make it clearer. Perhaps by changing the sidebar from

        LyX documentation
          Manuals
          Tutorials
          Presentations
          LyX Functions
          Troubleshooting
          Suggested reading

into

        LyX documentation
          Documentation
          Manuals
          Tutorials
          Presentations
          LyX Functions
          Troubleshooting
          Suggested reading

That 'LyX documentation' is in both cases a link to LyX/Documentation, my suggestion is simply to add this link again just below the header.

 or here
 http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyXHelpDocuments

We can set at this page a link to
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Manuals

Looking at the pages, here's how I originally intended it:

* LyX/Documentation - Links to documentation about LyX and related to LyX.

* LyX/LyXHelpDocuments - This page describes the help documents that come
  with an installation of LyX.

* LyX/Manuals - A place for additional manuals (or links to them) about
  LyX

In other words, LyX/Documenation is intended as the main page for documentation of LyX. LyX/LyXHelpDocuments explains what you'll find in the documents that are accessible from the Help menu. And LyX/Manuals is a place for users etc to contribute "non-official" manuals.

I hope this makes sense...
