Maybe we should merge the page you asked me to write some times ago
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/HelpContent
I've begin to write a simplified guide more complete than what I wrote on

There is also the two extra files that will help to locate the help files
to modify that we should decide where to put.
Also is the modified template on git?
