#260 Documentation shouldn't be used to criticise online guides
Closed: complete 3 years ago by pbokoc. Opened 3 years ago by lcts.

The References section of the quick-doc regarding setting NVidia GPU as primary warns against "[referring] to the misleading information available on this site <link>". While I assume that this is a valid warning - the text gives no indication as to why the information is misleading, which is a problem in itself - I don't think official Fedora documentation should single out some individual's blog in this way.

If the warning is sufficiently important I suggest replacing this sentence with a more general warning box along the lines of "Guides often advise doing X, however a much safer method is to do Y, as described here.", wherever appropriate in the guide.

Fixed in #263. I removed the part from References and instead expanded a note on top of the doc.
