  • Call a folio a sheet, as the English interface now does (PR #1216) Prose only: page URLs (folio_links, navigating_folios), image names, code, XML tag and variable names, and French menu names are unchanged. Readers arriving from older forum posts are told a sheet used to be called a folio. Generated by qelectrotech-docker tools/wiki-folio-sheet/rename.py.
