Let's not go round in circles. I already pointed this out in my earlier
reply to Winston. It has been snipped from the thread history so I'll

"You will also need to document the generic function in your package. A
minimal functioning help page that cross-references to the dplyr package
should be sufficient"
Duncan gives more details on the cross reference in his reply.
