Hi Karen,
thanks for taking interest in our project and especially around the
documentation! Some answers inline.

Yes, this is the process, on GitHub contributions by way of pull
requests can be done only from forks. Though clicking on "Fork this
repository" should set everything up for you and you should be able to
do edits from there and propose changes via pull requests. The preview
is done only for the changes made to the apache/camel-website
repository, for changes to other repositories (like apache/camel) we
don't have the preview. After merging the changes, if there are no
issues found by checks the website is updated in the next 20-30min.

We started with content from the previous system (Confluence Wiki),
and in the process of conversion sometimes we duplicated the effort
and ended up with copies. The website gathers content from multiple
repositories (and branches) and formats (asciidoc and markdown). We
never took the time to implement a documentation strategy, as to where
what kind of content is placed. For me it would make more sense to
have the user stories outside of the user manual, that is in the
markdown file. That ends up being published here:

https://camel.apache.org/community/user-stories/

And that's the version we link from the community page
(https://camel.apache.org/community/).

If that makes sense to folk, it seems that we need to refresh that
markdown file with the changes that went into the asciidoc file in the
user manual and consider removing that copy.
