Etiquette for a Newbie

If this is a bit confused please bear with me.

Ubuntu documentation is vast and (at first) quite daunting for anyone
attempting to make a contribution to its upkeep. 
This is not a bug, or a complaint!

    Is there any overview Index, Map, or whatever as a complement to the
    Search facility, which might help one locate a desired subject? 

There were emails, in the past, which covered the editing of replies to
reduce space and improve clarity of communication and
more recently on forms of address (Hi :-)   for all, @Martin for an
individual, etc)


Reference, in the past, has been made (Re: Ubuntu Documentation -
Getting Started ) to **https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/temp_Manual
****      **
and more recently
to*https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation/GettingStarted
*

    the latter link, for me, results in -*This page does not exist yet.
    You can create a new empty page, or use one of the page templates.*
    which may be one and the same, but for very sensible reasons the
    latter is hidden or restricted.** 

    **Is **it practicable to include a page in, or associated with
    Getting Started which covers the communication points
    raised in the posts on the editing and addressing of emails referred
    to above?

     
    I do appreciate that Getting Started is meant to be short and pithy
    and that there are many individual approaches to both these subjects.
