The wiki has lots of useful information, but in saying that it is very generic and does not really cover any specific distro and since each one is different it does get very confusing.
Being generic is a good thing. People need to learn concepts not "mouse clicks". It is better to understand something in a detailed generic way than to understand just the specifics of a particular distro. This is true of all education not just Linux or computers. Once you understand the general concepts you can apply them to any distro. The only time distro specific info should be described is when the lack of that specific information would block the user from applying the generic concept to their system.
