Description

For fixing issue https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/8096, we added confirmation dialog for empty entries in JabRef by the PR: https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/8218, but it would be great if we can add an explanation about what an empty entry is in the FQA page. Discussion on this: https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/8096#issuecomment-968093326
