In this context, a label refers to the human-readable text
referencing the underlying bits and bytes. Variables, function names,
class definitions, et cetera, are all considered labels, or - in
another way of explaining it - an alias to the corresponding program
address.
The second part of your message is simple: look at the top-right
section of any document entry and you'll see, just to the left of the
"last updated" string, an [edit] link. Click that, and you're on your
way. The documentation won't update immediately, and your changes
will have to be reviewed by someone here on the Docs team, of course,
but you're certainly welcome - and encouraged - to contribute if you'd
like.
