Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-4324:
---------------------------------------

But inheriting docs from abstract base is allowed?
                
> extend checkJavaDocs.py to methods,constants,fields

> We have a large amount of classes in the source code, its nice that we have 
> checkJavaDocs.py to ensure packages and classes have some human-level 
> description.
> But I think we need it for methods etc too. (it is also part of our 
> contribution/style guidelines: 
> http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/HowToContribute#Making_Changes)
> The reason is that like classes and packages, once we can enforce this in the 
> build, people will quickly add forgotten documentation soon after their 
> commit when its fresh in their mind.
> Otherwise, its likely to never happen.
