Gramps 5.2 Wiki manual Stub eradication

Help User Manual
1

If anyone wants to help contribute in the Wiki, here’s a great target:
The Gramps 5.2 User Manual has a LOT of “Stub” markers that indicate incomplete sections.

Adding the missing content before the 5.2 release will reassure new users evaluating the new release. It also means that, after the rollover for the manual, we would only have to improve the pages where features have changed.

Stubs can be found by searching the following pages for the phrase: “Please update or expand this section”.

The Stub Category finds nearly 400 (392) pages. This includes multiple languages and pages that are only partially written.

The list above above includes just the English language main manual pages with Stubs.

We need a volunteer to work on the Stubs related to Reports.

Reports aren’t an area where I’m inclined to do much exploring. (Too many other active projects.)

There was a tool to generate samples Reports. And thumbnails would probably make narrowing down which built-in or addon Reports easier.

While eradicating a stub for the Adding photos and other media objects section of the “Entering and editing data: brief” wiki page, I wanted to expand on use of the Add Images not included in database feature in the Media Manager from the menu.

However, the Add Images not included in database subsection in the Tool :arrow_right: Utilities → Media Manager wiki article is … not comprehensive.

Can someone describe what directories this feature scans? And what what file types it chooses to add to the Media category?
