Here is an improvement to the largely inscrutable help text on the
admin/taxonomy page.  It is a much gentler and generic introduction to
the idea behind vocabularies and terms and avoids all jargon.  The more
difficult stuff can be covered on other pages and in the help
documentation.  It also to reflects the changes to the user interface
which no longer lists the terms below the vocabulary.

Reads very nice! One type, "You can relate vocabularies to eachother" 
... "each other" is two words :)

Not to be discouraging, but the admin/help documentation is being
maintained in the modules and features [1] section of the handbook. 
There was a big push this summer to update all admin/help documentation
for 4.6, and new docs were written for all core modules, including
taxonomy.module [2]. I do not know what the status is of efforts to
create a patch to update that text into the module.  However, we do
have some documentation on writing the admin/help docs [3].
