Removing the word "Legacy" and replacing the screeshots of Apple's WebObjects 
documentation with WOLips' one can make a difference too :)

One must understand the differences between WO and a non WO platform prior to 
do any development. Imo, for a beginner's point, starting from a D2W project is 
even worst as most of the non WO people don't get the idea of Rule System 
unless they understand EOF and other supporting stuff.

It took me a year to understand WO as for me (J2EE developer) everything was 
revolving around Servlets (Struts, JSF, and similar framworks) and I missed a 
lot of important stuff in the beginning just because I thought the Legacy is no 
more in use so there is no need to read it. After multiple failures to set a 
proper road map for learning WO, I gave up on Wonder and started from Legacy 
WebObjects and gone through every inch of the text. Then I understood that 
switching from non WO to WO is similar to switching religion. It's a rabbit 
hole to wonder land.

To contribute to WO, Alice must jump.
