My 2ยข worth. If the file you uploaded and linked is the latest one from the ODF Authors site, I suggest removing any duplicates if possible. I would not recommend merging, as this has the potential to create other issues.
I am unclear as to why either the template or the documentation contributors guides need to be uploaded to the wiki, anyone with an interest in contributing to the documentation can get the originals from the ODF Authors site. If it is considered necessary for them to be available via the wiki, we could simply link to the publicly available ODF Authors originals. This has the advantage of the templates and guides always being the most recently published updates.
