Although it's useful to include links to forum topics in the Technical Manual, and you can do so, we originally intended for the definitive summary of a forum topic to be included in the Technical Manual, cleaned up and reformatted.
This way a lot of the "noise" and opinion, pro and con, can be removed and a final definitive description, that is concise, can be added. A good example is the
tuning tour being added by Twistedtree. People are making suggestions in the
forum thread and Twistedtree is summarizing and standardizing it in the Tech Manual. That's exactly how it was intended to be done, see this
explanation.
All full members are free to help out, and no, you can't break anything. If you mess up a page in the Technical Manual, you can always revert to an earlier version.
So have no fear, and help out!
