nmcli nm status
Error: argument 'nm' not understood. Try passing --help instead

nmcli g

Please note that the page in question is a wiki page which anybody can
edit - including you. ;-)

Since you seem to know how it should be changed, it would be great if
you could fix it.

If you are not already a member of the ~ubuntu-wiki-editors team:
When applying to join, please also contact the team admins referencing
this bug number and how you plan on improving the wiki page and they
will review your request to add you to the team.

Due to the nature of the community help wiki, you can't request changes
to it in the form of bug reports.

Besides, the official documentation is hopefully better updated:
