Outstanding! This obviates the need for a wiki page (although perhaps
someone should link this site on the wiki, since this could turn into a
FAQ).
Well, this page
http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Links
If this page points to the answer, what's the question... 42? ;-)
lists that link for ages.
Seriously though.. Paul, as you asked first, could you see if there are
some words or description you think should be added to that sentence?
Maybe it's just a matter of giving the link a longer description.

Ok, mea culpa, it didn't occur to me to look on the Wiki (since it was a
BibTeX question, not a LyX question). That said, my approach to
researching pretty much anything on the Wiki is to use the search
facility. So for me the wording on the links page was sufficient. (It
might not be a bad idea to organize the links into sections, even though
there are not that many links, but I'll leave that to someone else.)
What I did is edit Bibtex/PageList to indicate that the links section
includes tips on styles. This is (the page list) the first page I would
check after searching on "bibtex", and I would give "links" a low
priority since they could be links to anything. Short of devoting a
separate page to "how to pick a bibtex style", I think this is as much
as we can do.
On the general question of making the wiki more transparent, I think
it's in pretty good shape as it is. To me, the higher priority is to
get people looking at the wiki in the first place, and secondarily to
let them know that it includes more than just information about LyX. To
that end, I wonder if (down the road) some enterprising developer might
put a link to the wiki in the LyX help menu?
