System Information
Operating system: macOS-10.15.7-x86_64-i386-64bit 64 Bits

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.3.1, branch: master, commit date: 2022-10-04 18:35, hash: blender/blender@b292cfe5a9
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error

On this page:
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/modeling/geometry_nodes/geometry/transform.html

at this line:

For transforming instances individually, the instance translate, rotate, or scale nodes can be used.

Three links are the same for three different things (translate, rotate, scale)

There appears to be a mistake in the documentation. Three of them all pointing to the same link:

This is the exact text in the RST file:

The *Transform Node* allows you to move, rotate or scale the geometry.
The transformation is applied to the entire geometry, and not per element.
The :doc:`/modeling/geometry_nodes/geometry/set_position` is used for moving
individual points of a geometry. For transforming instances individually, the instance
:doc:`translate </modeling/geometry_nodes/instances/translate_instances>`,
:doc:`rotate </modeling/geometry_nodes/instances/translate_instances>`, or
:doc:`scale </modeling/geometry_nodes/instances/translate_instances>`
nodes can be used.
