Help must be more descriptive and use verbs to explain the action, noun isn't really as clear as verbs to me. For example, instead of "Preferences" I'd use "Open Preferences dialog". The same for "New/Create", I could use "New window" in menu, however it confuses because New isn't really verb in help. But again, it's just my personal feeling.
