I hope this is the correct email address to make suggestions for the 
documentation. I downloaded the examples on 
http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/BiblatexStyles and found they confused me (trying to 
get BibLaTeX-biber working with classicthesis.sty, which I have now managed).  
The issues are covered in http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex, but I did not 
expect the example files to contain them as 'errors'.

May I suggest the following is added to the Note: above the examples and maybe 
emphasise as Mandatory Note:  because I missed it somehow, extending the 
debugging permutations.


1: The language encoding in the example files is set to Unicode 
(ucs-extended)(utf8x) not utf8 so it gives error incompatible package 'ucs' 
error upon typesetting. Set language to utf8.

2: The example files leave the bibliography processor as "Default" and it did 
not generate a bibliography without biber, instead only printed the bibtexkey 
in the intext link. Set bibliography processor to biber.

I am running LyX2.1.2-MiKTeX on Win7 Enterprise, but believe the above are 
controlled by the LyX file and my comments are general. My comments may not 
apply if biber is not being used, but I am a no expert.

Thankyou for the helpful site,
Alan Belle
