Description

The page General Info says that the info includes ExternalDocs and I found out it does not after looking to the reference. It is at the same level as Info. Please change that as it is misleading

Research direction

Start with the General Info page at https://swagger.io/docs/specification/api-general-info/ and compare its description with the OpenAPI 3.0 fixed-fields reference linked in the issue. Update the documentation so ExternalDocs is described at the correct level, then review the rendered page to confirm the misleading statement is gone.
