The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Not for a title. If you were to ask "Where is the reference manual" or

for Manual, but not for Referencia. Manual de Referencia is correct for a
title.
Machine translation services generally don't handle differing contexts
successfully.
