No. Please select the guilabel (e.g. it is implicitly selected when you 
click on it, that is, when the caret is inside it [*]), then use command 
Convert and select "(text)" from the list.

There is also an icon called "Convert to plain text" found in the 
DocBook toolbar which does exactly that.

You didn't insert a para below (that is, after) the itemizedlist. You 
inserted a para deep inside the itemizedlist (the node path  bar shows 
you this).

Using XMLmind XML Editor is very straightforward and very precise: once 
you have understood the basics, *everything* works the same, whatever 
the XML vocabulary you use.

Remember what you did for adding a chapter. You'll do here almost the 
same thing. Please select the itemizedlist (e.g. by clicking on 
"itemizedlist" in the node path bar [*]), then use "Insert After" and 
select "para" from the list.

The element is called "ulink". The web link is specified in its "url" 
attribute. See http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/ulink.html
