Users need a single place within the application (i.e. not the wiki) to find essential codes and definitions -- complete enough for a complete newbie with little knowledge of terminology. Item that need to be included:
- https://wiki.logos.com/Morphology_Codes
- library type definitions
- https://wiki.logos.com/Bible_Datatypes
- list of documentation include internal documentation of interactives
- list of all searches requiring {section}
- list of all available labels and their attributes with links to documentation
- list of features that change behavior depending on interface language (e.g. stemming)
I'll leave it to others to expand the list but basically every item displayed or abbreviation used should have a definition somewhere. Mouse tips are useful but it takes looking at related definitions to understand the differences between similar items.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
