Welcome here,

I changed 2 paragraphs in the section https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Custom_Reports#Simple_Proposal_for_Linux to show you the use of the <SyntaxHighlight> tag. What is your opinion about it?

Thanks for the welcome! As I'm working through understanding custom reports, I thought I'd try to give back with a few, hopefully helpful, edits. <SyntaxHighlight> is pretty cool. I did not realize it is available. It even supports Scheme. I was trying to draw the reader's eye to certain specific areas in code snippits with changes to text color, but perhaps the <SyntaxHighlight> highlight parameter would achieve a similar goal. I'll give it a try soon!

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Custom_Reports now uses <SyntaxHighlight> throughout. And the highlight parameter seems to do the trick to get the reader to look a lines they should edit. Seems much more readable to me, what do you think?

Really nice! As you seem to be an advanced wiki editor I would like to invite you to improve Wiki_Tips too with topics like {| class="wikitable" ....
  • Gnucash API is not the source tree, but an on code built documentation. So former ([http://code.gnucash.org/docs/HEAD/ master branch]) should become ([http://code.gnucash.org/docs/MAINT/ maint] or [http://code.gnucash.org/docs/MASTER/ master] branch). I don't want to disrupt your edits.

Oh! Thanks. Fixed. I have wiki experience, but am just learning media wiki as I make updates. I'll take a peek at Wiki Tips. As you might be able to tell, these Talk pages are new to me, but I'm getting the hang of it. LeeRead (talk) 20:57, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
Had a crack at Wiki Tips. Let me know what you think. LeeRead (talk) 22:30, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
