Documentation 
Section: 
3.2. To Open a Location
http://library.gnome.org/users/totem/stable/totem-usage.html.en#totem-usage-open-location
    Problem: The name of the dialog has changed.
    Change: "The Open from URI dialog is displayed." -> "The Open Location... dialog is displayed."

http://library.gnome.org/users/totem/stable/totem-usage.html.en#totem-usage-view-properties
    Problem: Typo.
    Change: "grop-down list" -> "drop-down list"

http://library.gnome.org/users/totem/stable/totem-usage.html.en#totem-usage-on-top
    Problem: The View > Always on Top option does not exist.
    Change: "choose View > Always on Top." -> "right click on the window's title and select the Always On Top option."

3.12.2. Manage a PlayList
http://library.gnome.org/users/totem/stable/totem-usage.html.en#totem-usage-playlist-manage
    Problem: To be consistent with the rest of the documentation, the title of this section should not have the "L" in "Playlist" capitalized.
    Change: "Manage a PlayList" -> "Manage a Playlist"

3.12.2. Manage a PlayList
http://library.gnome.org/users/totem/stable/totem-usage.html.en#totem-usage-playlist-manage
    Problem: The "Select files" dialog is called "Select Movies or Playlists".
    Change: "The Select files dialog is displayed." -> "The Select Movies or Playlists dialog is displayed."

Comment 1 Philip Withnall 2007-12-15 09:17:23 UTC
The first one incorrectly introduces an ellipsis, which contravenes the documentation style guidelines, but apart from that everything looks good. I believe I fixed one or two of these issues with my patch to bug #500783, so I'll go through and commit all these changes once that bug's closed.

Thanks for your work. :-)
