Exclamation Broken hyperlink: Links | Getting Help with calibre

There is a broken link under the section "Links" | "calibre: Getting Started" | "Getting Help with calibre".

The correct URL is (without the / after help): http://calibre-ebook.com/help

Thanks for this super informative howto on calibre!

P.S.
Are there any significant differences between this post and the calibre for Beginners guide at:

Yes.

"How I Manage…" is oriented toward strategy and workflow, how one calibre user does things. I assume the reader already knows basics about using the calibre Graphical User Interface and any specific commands, or at least can learn such things elsewhere, which is why there is a Links section "calibre: Getting Started". Except for Links, the content is intentionally example-based per one user's experience, strategy, workflow, and setup.

Becca's Help File "calibre for Beginners" is more about basic procedures and their commands, along with some basic tips.

Calibre Collections

Hi,
Firstly I apologize if this is in the wrong thread, but I am new and the forums are as complicated to me as Calibre
I have all my books organized by tags eg: science fiction, non fiction, fiction etc. On my Kindle I have them in the same collections as above, but every time I send a book to the device it always ends up at the bottom of the collections and I have to manually transfer the book into the right collection. I thought it was to do with sort by tags option but this does not work, or I am doing it wrong (more likely). Please help this complete dummy. I just want my book to end up in a collection as it is tagged.
Thanks in advance
