I don't know that all are answered there, but I recently found a Site
Maintainer's Guide, which is quite useful:

I'd say publish it and leave a comment requesting more work.  Docs are
always in flux and could always be better in some way.  It's a shame
to leave them unpublished (unless the author really meant to hide
them, but if so, use a text file on your machine as the drafting place
and don't use the drupal.org queue for drafting).

Not sure.

Well, you can be sure that if you delete something that the author
really liked then you'll hear a scream from them ;)
