optimising the UserDocumentation page

Hi, I seem to have gone out on a limb with my own idea of how 
UserDocumentation look and work.

So, let's have a chat about it...

1. Please fill me in. Please point to me relevant discussions in the archive
2. What do you think about the pages I've made? They show how I think 
UserDocumentation could work as a link to the topics, not an abundance 
of actual guides: NewToUbuntu HowToGetHelp Installation SoftwareManagement

It is my view that UserDocumentation as it stands is difficult to use 
and a nightmare for newbies. I think that one reason for this is that it 
is near impossible for one person to have a clear overview of the page. 
That's probably why I found a few cases where the same page was linked 
to twice.

If someone feels that we should revert the page to before I started 
fiddling with it then go ahead, I have a copy of what I've done.

Let's go forward from here. I've probably jumped in a bit fast thinking 
I understood more about this wiki than I actually did. Sorry about that, 
and yes I agree that making comments (more) compulsory would be a good idea.

Duncan
