Hi jojo,
It do not really get this change. You change the help page handling from maintainable inside the wiki to a configuration file. And there you use a non-default interwiki code (mw: is not present in interwiki.sql. "mediawikiwiki:" points to www.mediawiki.org). This means that a default MediaWiki installation will not have a proper link to the help page. It will also no longer facilitate localisation of the help page URL.
I am not sure this is an improvement... I suggest you change it back and replace 'coll-helppage' to "mediawikiwiki:Extension:Collection/Help". I will set the message to 'optional' so that translators will not localise it, unless there is a need for it (for example because "mediawikiwiki:Extension:Collection/Help" was translated). This ensure a proper implementation of i18n and possibilities for L10n remain. Wiki sysops will also still be able to change the documentation link and there is is sufficient guarantee ensure that the doc link initially points where you want it to point.
It may of course be that you have a different reason for changing the help page, and if so, please explain...
Cheers! Siebrand
