It was already mentionned but I will repeat here that moving the
"Documentation/wiki" so far behind the scenes is very sad. Now, you
have to click on 'Help' then ignore the first link to the 'welcome'
page leading you to the online editor, then ignore the second link to
help.openstreetmap.org, a tool mainly in English where you might wait
days until you get the right answer, to finally end up in the main OSM
documentation with the last link...
Where the experience of newcomers in OSM should be "okay, make some
fun with a first try on the online editor", "make more changes until
you need some answers", -->"RTFM"<-- (the wiki), "ask the question if
you don't find it in the wiki". Here is another evidence that web
designers don't like wikipedia and wikis in general. Surely, the wiki
is far from perfect but hiding the documentation will not decrease
newcomers frustrations.
