Comment (by JerrySarcastic):

 These should definitely be in contextual help; I'm shocked they're not
 already.

 Because the funtionality is no different when adding a page or adding a
 post, I would think you could use the same text for both help sections.
 Instead of writing a unique string titled '''Inserting Media''' on the
 contextual help for "Pages", you could just re-use the text strings for
 '''Add Media''', '''Embed Media''', and '''Distraction-Free Writing'''
 since the actions are the same, but better explained as separate strings

 For Embedding Media, I think a quick sentence explaining how to do
 actually do it (i.e., paste the media URL) will provide a nice hint, since
 there is not dedicated button for for oEmbeds.

 ----

 '''Embed Media''' - With oEmbed, you can easily media from popular
 websites such as Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Slideshare, and others.  All
 you need to do is copy the URL of that media, and paste it directly into
 the text of your page/post.  To [http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds#oEmbeda
 learn more about oEmbeds and ​see a full list of supported providers],
 please refer to the Codex.
