I'll start going through the chapters you have marked as YES under
Review Completed. When I'm working on one of those files, I put my
name in the Checkout column, is that right?
Yes it is.
After I've been through a chapter, where do I put it? I guess you
have been overwriting the files on this page
. Should I do that
too? And then take my name off the Checkout column?
Yes, that's right. To upload a new version of a file, you can go to
Special Pages on the wiki and then choose the File List link and
click on the filename of the file you're wanting to upload. That
takes you to the page for that file where there is a link to upload a
new version of the file.

This is great. So it sounds like our nascent workflow is this:
1) Work toward completion of 'Getting Started' documentation:
a. as reviewer/publisher refer to
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development
b. see a file thats state is 'no' under 'Review Completed'.
c. check out document by placing username in checkout column.
d. Download latest version of document from
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation
e. Review document, editing as needed.
f. upload document at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Special:Upload
g. check document back in by removing username from 'Review
Completed' column on Development page.
h. Change file state to 'yes' in Development matrix.
h. Alternatively, as editor/publisher follow steps b through h,
changing 'Review Completed' for 'Agree to Publish'.
2) Iron out workflow, or barring that, move on to 'Writer Guide'.
If this is correct, or correct with edits, perhaps we could place
this information on
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Teamwork with a nice
sign up for account button, in hopes of making it easy for others to
get on board and typing.
