Help pages lead to unwritten wiki documentation

Most of the Elkarte help pages link to the Github wiki, which does not have the appropriate documentation written. The only one with a valid link is the Features doc.

I know devs are terrible at documentation, but you do have a lot of SMF docs to inspire you. The hard work is done, you just have to write it out for Elkarte.

Yeah... but... hey, you are greatly underestimating devs laziness!!

BTW, I have not devoted too much time to the help mainly because I would really like to change the page completely, so write documentation there would be a kind of waste of time (at least to properly organize the content in terms of versions and languages, ecc.).

And... anyway I think the wiki is completely open to contributors (I don't think there is any restriction). O:-)

Sorry, my english isn't good enough for this. But feel free to use my texts here, use an online translater or such and then optimize them for these docs.

You're welcome. A very small opportunity to give something back.
