# `manual-page-for-system-command`

The command in `/sbin` or `/usr/sbin` are system administration commands; their manual pages thus belong in section 8, not section 1.

Please check whether the command is actually useful to non-privileged user in which case it should be moved to `/bin` or `/usr/bin`, or alternatively the manual page should be moved to section 8 instead, ie. `/usr/share/man/man8`.

Severity: | `pedantic`
Experimental: | `false`
Renamed from: | `command-in-sbin-has-manpage-in-incorrect-section`
