Documentation on UPDATE Community ChangeType is unclear #118

Description
I want to run an UPDATE against our database using liquibase.
However, after perusing its docs for UPDATE Community Change Types at Content/change-types/community/update.html (website) I have more questions than answers; here are my observations:
- The column's
nameproperty isn't explained (but used in examples). - There's no hint in the text that an element within
columnsshould be namedcolumn. (The XML example directly nests thecolumnelement as a direct child element ofupdate; that's not listed as an option in the table.) - YAML format (that's what I'd like to use) doesn't seem to differentiate between nested properties and attributes - they are on the same level - so how are they different?
- It's unclear what nested property the nested property attributes refer to. I'm guessing they refer to
column, but from that page, you could just as well try to apply them to thewhereproperty. - It's unclear to me why there is a
whereon the attributes and the nested properties level. What's meant by the "name" of the where condition string in the description for thewhereattribute ("The name of the 'where' condition string")? - The page on
insertincludes a link to https://docs.liquibase.com/change-types/community/add-column.html#Informa in the description cell for thecolumnsproperty that might be helpful on theupdatepage as well. - There's a typo in the "Uses" section: "another attributes" should probably read "other attributes".
It would be neat if the docs could be clarified. :-)
