 ## Information
 
-This is a brief overview of the additional parameters for an API call via {restatis}. These parameters only affect the API call itself, not the data processing. Be aware: Not all parameters are available for all functions.
+This is a brief overview of the additional parameters for an API call via {restatis}. These parameters are offered by some of the API endpoints of the three databases, but {restatis} does not explicitly offer them as function parameters. We do, however, provide the possibility of passing additional parameters to most functions via the '...' notation. These parameters are then added to the API call and affect it in the -hopefully- intended way. However, they have no other effect (e.g., on data processing) and there is no error handling implemented for them. It is the user's responsibility to provide correct parameter names and parameter values. Be aware: Not all parameters are available for all functions.
 
 Especially `gen_table()` and `gen_cube()` have a lot of different additional parameters to specify the API call. For a detailed overview, see the following official documents:

 ## Short Overview of the Most Used Additional Parameters
 
 ### Parameter: Selection & Searchcriterion
 
-The `selection` parameter is a string that specifies the filter to use for filtering the API call. The criterion to which this parameter is applied to is defined by the `searchcriterion` parameter. The maximum length of the string depends on the function being used, but often times varies between 10 and 15 characters. It is possible to use '\*' as a placeholder. The default for this parameter is *no* filtering.

-The `searchcriterion` parameter is a string that specifies the criterion to be used by the `selection` parameter. Possible values depend on the function being used, but are often times "code" for filtering based on code or "content" for filtering based on the content description. The default for this parameter is *no* filter criterion. Often times, the `searchcriterion` parameter and the `sortcriterion` parameter have the same possible values.

 ### Parameter: Sortcriterion
-The `sortcriterion` parameter is a string that specifies whether the raw output of the API call is sorted according to the specified input. Possible values depend on the function being used, but often times "code" for sorting based on code and "content" for sorting based on the content description are possible. The default is *no* sorting.

 Examples:
 ```{r eval=FALSE}
 # Get the values of the variable "WAM8" sorted based on their codes
 gen_val2var("WAM8", sortcriterion = "code")
 ```
 
-### Parameter: Pagelength
-The `pagelength` parameter is a number between 1 and 2500. It indicates the maximum length of the API call output. Default is 100.

-Examples:
-```{r eval=FALSE}
-# Get the values of the variable "WAM8", where the maximum length of the output is 2500 entries

 ### Parameter: Language
-The `language` parameter is a string. It indicates if the API call output is in German by using "de" or in English by using "en". Default is "en" (API default is "de" but it is overwritten by {restatis} to being "en").
