Hi,

please have a look at our systemsettings documentation in khelpcenter and how 
it is displayed in the navigation tree.
I think it is necessary to cleanup this.

We have 92 settings modules in trunk:
kdedev@rebutia:~/svn$ kcmshell4 --list|wc -l
93-1 = 92

1. On the top level in the navigation tree is an item "Control Center Modules" 
with 58 subitems.
Why is it called "Control Center", this is from 3.5, but in kde4 there is no 
Control Center any more.
The list with 58 (why only 58 and not 92?) items is unusable because:
Unordered list
Strange/confusing names like "General" (what is it? Konqui settings) 
or  "Fonts" twice (one is system fonts, the other Konqui fonts)
Most of these items are also in other places in the navigation tree.

Proposal: remove it.

2. In "Application Manuals" there is "Control Center"	with the obsolete 
documentation for kcontrol.

Proposal: remove it.

3. In "Application Manuals" there is "Settings" with: 
Dgital Camera, KWalletManager, Menu Editor, Network Settings, Wallet 
Management Tool (=same documentation as KWalletManager)
Why this separate group?

Proposal: remove the item "Settings" and move the subitems to an appropriate 
place.

4. In "Application Manuals" there is "Settings-Modules" with 9 groups of items 
in the structure from kcontrol 3.5.

Proposal: remove it.

5. In "Application Manuals" there is "System Settings" -> the Handbook.
Rename it to "System Settings Manual", then it is ok.

6. In "Application Manuals" there is "System Settings" with items in two  
subgroups "General" + "Advanced". This is the same layout as in the 
application systemsettings.  There are only some documentations missing, all 
docs have to be added here in an appropriate subgroup.

Proposal: 
This should be the only item in the navigation tree with documentation for all 
settings in kde4. It should have the same layout in the navigation tree as in 
the application systemsettings.
Move it up to a top level item in khelpcenters navigation tree.

Attached a file with the layout of the application systemsettings with all 
items, the available and missing documentation and other bugs regarding the 
help.
There are 54 items, what is the difference to the 92 items reported by  
kcmshell4 --list and where is the documentation for these items in 
khelpcenter?

In the kcmshell4 list are additional:
Browser setting for Konqui - khtml_general, cookies, cache, ebrowsing, 
khtml_filter, khtml_fonts, khtml_plugins, khtml_behavior, khtml_java_js, 
kcmcss, useragent. 11 items. 
These items are listed in No 1 the "Control Center Modules" I want to remove.
So where should they go in the navigation tree?
To "Application Manuals"->"Internet"->"Konqueror Settings"? 

Next group of documentations not in System Settings is the KInfocenter stuff:
kcmview1394, nic, xserver, interrupts, devices, dma, scsi, opengl, kcm_pci, 
sound, kcm_partition, kcm_memory, kcmusb, kcmsolidproc, ioports, smbstatus.
These 16 docs are in "KInfoCenter Modules" in the navigation tree.

Some moduls are not listed in the application systemsettings, like bookmarks, 
kcm_knetworkconfmodule, kcmdolphin etc.

Launching kcmshell "modul" the window caption is "name of modul - KDE Control 
Module", shoudn't this be changed to "KDE System Settings Module"?
