Stéphane,
Thanks for your answer.
I'll try, as soon as I can, to see if I'm able to go into the GIT world,
but it may take much more time than your second option.
So my next question is, how do I find the files to modify?
Should I download the source code?
And--this is embarrassing--I cannot track back what help page my own
correction,
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16250
refers to, and as the bug is a very unspecific typo I cannot recall it.
Thank you very much for your patience!
Regards,
Federico Miyara

Hello Frederico,
In order to*create new commits* you cannot avoid to start with
installing GIT on your computer and getting the Scilab source files
(which includes the documentation). Depending on your OS using GIT can
be a different experience, but using the command line is not a must.
For example under Windows you have https://gitforwindows.org/. Once
you have installed any flavor of GIT, the remaining instructions are
inside this Wiki https://wiki.scilab.org/gerrit
If all those things are too complicated for you, just give us (for
example me or Samuel) the modified files and we will create the commit
and you will be able to edit/update it directly on codereview.scilab.org

Samuel,
Somebody told me I could edit the documentation by myself. I need
some permission? How I can get access to edit the help pages?
* login on the CodeReview portal, with your usual (Bugzilla)
Scilab login and password:
https://codereview.scilab.org => Sign in, in the top right
* Contribute to an existing commit, just through the web interface.
Creating new commits and managing them is (quite) more complicated
(at least it was, for me).
But many contributions are possible directly with the web interface,
without knowing GIT,
including editing files.
Would you please give me some extra hints?
I'm quite serious about starting to contribute corrections and
improvements to some help pages, the only area where I feel confident
that I can put my two cents for the time being (besides just
detecting bugs).
I've been able to login, I arrive at this page:
https://codereview.scilab.org/#/q/status:open
There are many open subjects, of course none of them matches the bug
I've filed earlier:
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16250
Anyway, I proceed and open the first one:
https://codereview.scilab.org/#/c/20723/
But now I'm completely at a loss. How do I locate the help page I
want to edit from here?
Thanks in advance.
Federico Miyara
