 Hello,

 On a fresh install which doesn't have menus setup yet, when you go to the
 Appearance > Menus you'll get a form to Create Menu but before that
 there's misleading verbiage and a link;
 "Edit you menu below, or <create a new menu>"
 *I used <> to denote the link text.

 This verbiage is misleading as there's no menu below to edit. As well the
 `create a new menu` link just links back to the current page so isn't
 useful.

 Suggesting verbiage;
 'Create your first menu below.'

 The other option is to remove that message box as it's not really needed.

 Cheers
