Hmm, as someone who made a living as a technical writer who mainly wrote user documentation ... I too find the standard Linux documentation (what is commonly available online and/or comes with Linux) I've read not very accessible for newbies. It makes many assumptions about the readers' background knowledge.
I agree with that, Its very hard to write documentation at a level that's easy to understand, but not offensive to those with some knowledge.
The main observation I have is the more knowledgeable a person becomes the harder it is for them to communicate. There is a lot to be said for proof reading by a novice.
However, the posting that started this thread the standard of English was poor, and could be interpreted in many ways.
