    66They were present in version 109 too: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=109
    77
    8 In version 129 "Getting started" section got too big for "5-10 minutes tutorial": https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=129
     8In version 129 '''"Getting started" section''' got too big for "5-10 minutes tutorial": https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=129
    99
    1010And it was slitted in "within this wiki" (offline help) and "other resources": https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=130
    1111
    12 In version 133 help activation steps were covered https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=133 but this is unnecessary as if user managed to read this text... Then he pressed at least something to get there. There no documentation in the world^*[https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?action=diff&version=186 except JOSM]^ that tells you "enter www.org/documentation" at first line :)

    16 Lastest version before my content moves: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=143 is incomplete and imprecise in descriptions.

    1816There no reason to create "HOWTO" or "FAQ" page. All FAQ questions should be covered at https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help and more precise information should be covered at more complete pages.
    1917
    20 Not only https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help?version=216 directly covers "You first JOSM edit", "JOSM concepts", "JOSM interface", "JOSM tools by function" but it also provides links to plugins and menus only when really needed/necessary.

    22 Simply listing all links "here all plugins" "all items from main menu" "here all styles" is not enough to present some concept for the first time.
     20Simply listing all links "here all plugins" "all items from main menu" "here all styles" is not enough to present some concept for the first time. And by the way, it was done in https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki. Second frontpage with same content is overkill.

    2422You explain concept first without any links, then you add the most relevant links to bits of text. This way text be compact and deep (because of links you place).
