There is also mdoc(7), which describes the same thing:

           SEE ALSO
           References other manuals with related topics.  This section should
           exist for most manuals.  Cross-references should conventionally be
           ordered first by section, then alphabetically (ignoring case).

I consult mdoc(7) frequently when writing or editing manual pages.

In addition to 'mandoc -Tlint', there is a tool in ports called 'igor'
which can be used to perform some style checking of manual pages.
Hope that helps!

Regards,
Conrad
