0004063: README files have links to the tracker, but not the Doomseeker project on the tracker directly
Various Doomseeker documentation files link to the index of the issue tracker, which defaults to "All projects", instead of Doomseeker. I expected those links to take me to the Doomseeker project for me automatically, whenever possible.

At the moment, the Doomseeker website has a MantisBT specific link to "project ID 2" on the tracker, which seems to correspond to the Doomseeker project.

Patches attached. 0003 should be squashed with 0001, but I realized it after 0002 and didn't want to bother again.

v2 patches attached with the appropriate commit squash, because I noticed a typo / grammar error in the original patches ("in documentation" → "in the documentation").

The best link would be the one that would set the combobox in the top-right corner to Doomseeker, because by going to the prefab search link will show me all the Doomseeker bugs, but if I chose something else in the combobox beforehand (Zandronum or Site), I will still report a bug for Zandronum or Site, not Doomseeker.

But, in general, yeah the link to the prefab search page seems to be better than the generic link to the main page.

In my honest opinion, I would be happy to see the whole Doomseeker issue tracker move off to a dedicated issue tracker off-site from zandronum.com, and also not use (an old version of) MantisBT anymore. But I understand the grievances.

I've squashed both v2 into this commit:'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/doomseeker/commits/315700dd022cc4e24e044c19e461f933a76eaffd [^]'

Thanks.

needs review

The squashed commit is fine by me. Merging a new branch without fast-forward was an alternative in consideration for git-revert(1), but I don't argue against or for either way.
