Hello Michael
1)
Just thinking if WCSLEN(3) should say the size of wchar_t, its actually
4-bytes. I had thought it might have been UTF16 2-bytes large.
I don't think there is a specific whar_t man page which could list this
information already?

STRLEN(3)
BTW, maybe the text can be adjusted to be consistent, either
"calculates" or "determines".
I'd say "counts" is actually better.
STRLEN(3)
DESCRIPTION
The strlen() function calculates the length of the string
pointed to by
s, excluding the terminating null byte ('\0').
WCSLEN(3)
DESCRIPTION
The wcslen() function is the wide-character equivalent of the
strlen(3)
function. It determines the length of the wide-character
string
pointed to by s, excluding the terminating null wide character
(L'\0').

glibc highlights that wchar_t is 32bits wide, and UCS-4 ISO 10646
Could that be added to the man pages?
