Hi Folks,

I would like to request an enhancement of the [module documentation for the vmware\_guest\_snapshot module](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/vmware_guest_snapshot_module.html).

From the [GitHub issue 22644](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/22644) and [this thread](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ansible-project/1kE0sD8L3NY) I know that using the parameter ‘folder’ is mandatory. But the documentation still says that it is not required.

As another enhancement I would like to suggest to use all required parameters in the examples section. All given examples won’t work becaus the required parameter ‘datacenter’ is not specified.

I already had a look into [“I’d like to help with documentation”](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/community.html#i-d-like-to-help-with-documentation) but I couldn’t find the place with the module documentation on GitHub.

What do you think about my suggestions?

Regards,  
Joerg

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I’ve created [PR 25221](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/25221) yesterday.
