That is a bit weird, I'd presumed it was a link to GettingHelp and
then got redirected, rather than containing the redirect. I suspect we
missed that when the website content was created, likely just copying
and pasting in the URL without thinking further.

It's actually curious to me that it's /not/ GettingHelp, as that is a
category that includes Documentation (but not the reverse), and seems
to describe the page content better. Anyone here know the reason for
the rename/redirect?

It's an easy fix, I've attached a patch for Jim or someone to approve
and push.
