Docs suggestions post
Have any suggestions for things that you think should be documented but aren't, things about the current documentation that you think need improving, or any "hey, wouldn't it be neat if..." ideas that pertain to docs? Comment here with them, and I'll either fix them, put them in zilla, or explain why I don't want to do them.

If you want to point
I've not done anything about the other two points on the list, because I'm not entirely sure what sort of thing you have in mind for them. If you want to elaborate and explain to me, I'd happily put them in zilla (or you can put them in yourself, of course).

Everything from how to get to the "developer area" to what the available language is. First in importance, I think, is a list of what the backend supplies and what each thing means. If I had to point fingers, I'd point 'em at

Needs to be changed to mention that if you're trying to link to a Dreamwidth user from another site (or even on the site), you can find a handy copy-paste code at the bottom of that journal's profile!

No FAQ for the cut tag expander (which would ideally mention nested cut tags, and also how some of the html isn't carried over... Azz had some suggestions in that req, which I'm copying over).
If someone is reading your entry on Dreamwidth, in your journal, on their Reading page, or on their Network page, and they have (er, scripts?) turned on (are there any styles that does not make this happen?) they can expand the contents of the cut without leaving the page they are on.
To expand the contents of a cut, select the Expand control:
Any HTML tags that have been opened within the cut and have not been closed in your entry before the cut tag is closed will be automatically closed by the expander.

-- http://dw-docs.dreamwidth.org/25864.html?thread=213000&style=mine#cmt213000: linking to http://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/emailmanage.bml from FAQ#48.
-- http://dw-docs.dreamwidth.org/25864.html?thread=220936&style=mine#cmt220936: using consistent terminology for community administration.
-- http://dw-docs.dreamwidth.org/27255.html?thread=229239&style=mine#cmt229239: renaming Manage Userpics to Manage Icons and using the new URL in all FAQs.
-- http://dw-docs.dreamwidth.org/27255.html?thread=229751&style=mine#cmt229751: nitpick about the Site Map.
New suggestion:
On Manage Userpics, the main text says "To upload a new one, use the form at the top of the page." Visually, the form is on the left, not at the top. Also, it's not displayed when you've reached your limit.

(This came about because it took me a good 5 minutes to figure out how to close a support request I'd opened with credit.)
Missing in FAQ 103
(First commented on the wrong entry because I went straight to the tags list.)
OpenID Faqs
FAQ#123 is a bit better but doesn't explicitly said what your LJ OpenID is and is, of course, meant for LJ users only.
Come to think of it, I think a FAQ telling you how to log in with OpenID is missing. The account thing should be secondary.

It would be very nice if the new poll tags were listed in the faqs, I'd like to write polls in my journals, but since I always forget the tags, I'm always writing half an entry, realizing I want to include a poll, opening a second update page to start the pollbot, and then copying and pasting that code into the original entry. If I just had a faq with the poll code listed, I would not have to bother.
