Hello @RobbieGibson
Thanks for your contributions on the wiki!!
Can you be aware of this work that is currently being carried out... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=355868
Most pages have an Updated version which should match the current stable release of Kodi. It is located in the top right corner of the page as shown in the image.
As a guide, if the page is already updated to v18, it is has an extremely low priority for re-writing and we would prefer it not to be rewritten mid release (but editing to fix errors is ok). It is more important to update older pages that have an Update Version from a previous release.
Some of your edits I will have to revert or fix, and I see you have fixed a couple already. Be aware that when changing section headings or removing transclusion code you will break any other page that links to it. I have already fixed one, but I think there is another one that I have to find again.
I understand that you want Kodi GUI terminology to match wiki terminology (and I completely agree with you) but in the case of "Settings" this is one of the very few exceptions. I think using System instead of Settings may confuse users. Unless any other user or Team Member objects, I would like to keep using Settings, especially as it is used throughout the wiki and here on the forum. System is too vague and for most people it does not imply settings.
A quick look at the Basic Controls page... https://kodi.wiki/view/Basic_controls
I am here most days so feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thanks again!!

- Any reason for removing "Filter" as Filter and Search are not the same.
- Home Screen you changed to The home screen. I see you have done this for many sections. Do we really need an article at the start? Changing the section heading also breaks any links to that section if another page was using it.
- Also section headings are case sensitive. Home Screen and Home screen are not the same and will break a link
I am here most days so feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thanks again!!
