bug#24222: 24.5; Elisp `Standard Errors' and `Classifying Lists'


From: Drew Adams
Subject: bug#24222: 24.5; Elisp `Standard Errors' and `Classifying Lists'
Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2016 19:34:48 -0700 (PDT)

In node `Standard Errors', for error `wrong-number-of-arguments', the only 
description is "See Classifying Lists."  OK, so we click that link to find out 
what this error type means...

Node `Classifying Lists' we see some odd introductory text telling us to expect 
that "below" (in this node, presumably, as that is all we see at this point) we 
will find descriptions of the three kinds of forms (function call, macro call, 
special form).

But there are no such descriptions.  Huh?

And just where do we find a description of a `wrong-number-of-arguments'
error?

This doc bug is _very_ old, dating back to at least Emacs 20.
