Hello,

my advice for faster way of fixing mistakes:
Choose a language to start with (this is preferably English) and
then write the article. Create an outline, write chapters, add
screenshots...
Get as much feedback as you can get. Do the guide by the shown
steps and check for errors. THEN translate.

It's just easier if you don't need to fix minor issues in multiple
versions.

On the text itself. You guys need to fix the screenshot sizes. The page
loads a while and the screenshots are that huge that you cannot tell
where text is and where just crap is. Crop the stuff that does not
matter (e.g. services screenshot) and use thumbnails.

I would like to see the user pointed on how to create a samba share (bit
more detailed though). You mentioned WinSCP which is specific to Windows
and not very comfortable to use. Not sure if that is an option for
anybody.

I think we do not need the disclaimer. In our law, even ping, telnet and
nmap are illegal tools and it's up to the user what he is going to do
with transmission. Bittorrent by itself is not illegal.

Furthermore, why do we have a huge "installation section" on every
article? It is always the same. Why not create a very detailed guide and
always refer to it and tell the names of the packages to install?

Altogether the article is quite nice and to the point. One could collect
some links to the official transmission documentation for further
reading.
