I'm looking for opinions on some issues re
  http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/VimTip960
  Copy an Entire Buffer to the Clipboard

(1) The alternative methods use the '+' register, except for one which uses
'*'. Is there a reason for that inconsistency (apart from the fact that it
usually doesn't matter)? I'm favouring changing 'ggVG"*y' to 'ggVG"+y'.

(2) At the top, 'Normal Mode' shows two alternatives, in separate boxes.
That's probably good in this case because it's a short tip. If you were
concerned about the waste of space, what would you put for the wikitext?
(This is trivial, but it comes up in a few tips.)

Maybe
 gg"+yG
 or
 ggVGy

or
 gg"+yG
 "or
 ggVGy

or leave it as is, or something else? Same issue occurs under 'Windows
Specific'.

(3) I don't see why this tip is in category 'Integration' - bit of a
stretch?

John
