Talk:XML - Managing Data Exchange/DocBook

Some suggestions, etc.
It says:

Creating a DocBook Document

In order to get started, you will need:

* An XML editor. Download NetBeans IDE here if you haven't done yet.

Is this right? An IDE seems like overkill for XML editing.

Can you recommend a simpler (free tool)?

Also, please explain why NetBeans IDE is being recommended, so I can understand why...thanks

Line numbers
Get rid of them. They clutter the layout, and aren't referred to in the text

Help with wikification
The tables of code samples and the tables of element types need to be converted to wiki markup.

Attribution
Does this chapter really need to start with "Initially written by Rusen Gul, University of Georgia, 2004"?

Most readers wouldn't be interested in this. Can't we move it to a less prominent place? --Mortense (discuss • contribs) 21:51, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
