De Angela;
First off let me apologize for not getting to you earlier. With the
holidays it has been a bit hectic. There are a number of things that
need doing at the moment. One that is fairly easy is to check
completed pages against the software to be sure that they are correct
and easy to follow. You would just open one of the doc pages in your
browsr and then open OpenOffice and follow the steps in the document
and make sure that thy correspond to the software and do what they say
they do.
If you would like to start with this then just go to our status page
at http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide/Status and
look for pages that have not been checked for accuracy with 4.0 and go
ahead and do it. when complete just add your name and time and date
stamp to the status page for that document. The easist way to do that
is to enter 5 tilde characters (~). This is a standard Mwiki shortcut
to entering your signature with date and time.
If you have any questions or need clarification on any thing please
com back to the list with them and one or more of us will be glad to help.
Also if you would like to start with somthing else please let us now
and we can guide you further in where you would le to help.

Okay, I didn't announce what section I had worked on. I did comment
about discrepancies in the discussion area and noted which version of
Windows I used, in case that had some bearing on the discrepancies.
Thanks.

De Angela;
What you did is perfectly fine. If you found things unclear you could
either comment on them as you did or you could correct the wording
either one.
If you found discrepancies between the documentation and the way the
program actually worked those should be changed in the documentation; or
notes made to the list as to what was unclear so a consensus as to the
best way to proved can be reached.
Keep up the good work and please announce on the list what you are going
to do and when you have completed it.

Okay, so I proofread/edited the page, noted and time-stamped it. I
also went through the page and commented on the things that I thought
were unclear (there were a lot...)
On the status page, I noted and time-stamped that I proofread, but I
didn't make any notes for accuracy. Should I make a note, or only
sign it if it's completely accurate?
Let me know if I did something wrong.
Thanks.

De Angela;
You pretty much summed it up nicely. The signatuire and date/time
stamp would go in the status document at
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide/Status. Just
enter 5 ~'s in the section checked for accuracy with OpenOffice 4. You
can ignore the ones for version 3.4.

Thanks for the reply. :)
So, I pretty much read the entry for accuracy and edit it for
grammar/spelling, make spelling/grammar changes, and then detail what
I did in the Discussions section?
I'm a bit unsure about where in the Wiki I would rate or time stamp.
I didn't see ratings, but I saw version numbers. Am I looking in the
wrong place?
Thanks.
