Rewrite some of the help pages to make them less complicated
I have noticed that some of the help pages aren't too clear about what you're supposed to do and that may misguide a lot of newbies on the Wiki. Help pages on Userbox templates and signatures for example, aren't pretty clear on how to make the color changes and don't contain the color codes and that isn't straightforward for a newbie to do. The rewrite of the pages would make them explained in clear detail and it will tell the newbie on what code should be entered with a table on the commands that they can use including their functionality. They look hard for some newbies to understand correctly and they will be confused so I'd figured the Wiki can have the pages rewritten so that everyone can understand it. That just makes things less complicated

Rewrite

 * 1) Per my proposal.

Keep pages as is

 * 1) Listing all the color codes would be completely impractical, and it's not that hard to just swap out some code.
 * 2) I cann't see the point of it... I know that Help:Template have a expand template (LOL) but the others are OK. And if a new user cann't unterstand something, just ask to someone!
 * 3) - If a Help page (or any other official policy page) is lacking, you can always make a new draft yourself and show it to the admins for approval: you don't even need proposals for that. You could also use the Wiki Collabs board to highlight specific pages that need work and ask admins or other users to help. Either way, a Proposal vaguely calling for Help pages in general to be rewritten is the wrong way to go about this.
 * 4) Per Walkazo.
 * 5) Per all.
 * 6) Per myself in the comments.
 * 7) While what Walkazo has proposed is a bit far from ideal, there's no need to rewrite help pages.

Comments
Just so you know, if you need help, you can contact another user.  At last, the rock fell.
 * Whoops I didn't know that there is no need for a proposal like this but I find it hard to re word the help pages and I want to see if the Wiki community agrees with the idea or not.
