Comment:

 [attachment:23608.3.diff] is a restart. It's more succinct, yes, but also
 more plain-spoken and easier to follow.

 With 23608.3:

 >> Tab: Overview

 This screen is used for managing your custom navigation menus.

 Menus can be displayed in locations defined by your theme, even used in
 sidebars by adding a Custom Menus widget on the Widgets screen. If your
 theme does not support the custom menus feature (the default themes,
 Twenty Thirteen and Twenty Twelve, do), you can learn about adding this
 support by following the Documentation link to the side.

 From this screen you can:
 * Create, edit, and delete menus
 * Add, organize, and modify individual menu items

 >> Tab: Menu Management

 The menu management box at the top of the screen is used to control which
 menu is active in the editor below.
 * To edit an existing menu, '''choose a menu from the drop down and click
 Select'''.
 * If you haven’t yet created any menus, '''click the ’create a new menu’
 link or the Add New button''' to get started.

 You can assign theme locations to individual menus by '''selecting the
 desired settings''' at the bottom of the menu editor. To assign menus to
 all theme locations at once, '''visit the Manage Locations tab''' at the
 top of the screen.

 >> Tab: Editing Menus

 Each custom menu may contain a unique mix of links to pages, categories,
 custom URLs or other content types. Menu links are added by selecting
 items from the expanding boxes in the left-hand column below.
 * Add one or several items at once by '''selecting the checkbox next to
 each item and clicking Add to Menu'''
 * To add a custom link, '''expand the Links section, enter a URL and link
 text, and click Add to Menu'''
 * To reorganize menu items, '''drag and drop items with your mouse or use
 your keyboard'''. Drag or move a menu item a little to the right to make
 it a submenu
 * Delete a menu item by '''expanding it and clicking the Remove link'''

 Additional settings such as link target, CSS classes, link relationships,
 and link descriptions can be enabled and disabled via the Screen Options
 tab.
