emacs -Q
C-h f completing-read-multiple

The doc for `completing-read-multiple' refers you to the doc of
`completing-read' for explanation of arg TABLE. Click the
`completing-read' link.

The doc for `completing-read' refers you to the doc for
`try-completion' etc. for explanation of arg TABLE. Click the
`try-completion' link.

The doc for `try-completion' does not mention TABLE; it mentions
ALIST.  In sum, we send users to the doc of `try-completion' etc. for
info about TABLE, but they cannot find its explanation there.

Please change the doc of `try-completion' etc. to use TABLE, not
ALIST, for consistency.
