improving menus

Menus are a very good way for beginners to find out key bindings for
different functions and to find out what kind of functionality is
available.

Providing good menus is an easy way to greatly improve usability of
emacs.

Many modes do not have a menu at all, or have menus that are not
complete.

Please help doing this by looking at the code and
- add menus where they don't exist at all
- add menu entries to the existing menus
- add :help to existing menu entries
- improve the menu entry text

Examples of modes that could use menus: text-mode, change-log-mode, 
texinfo-mode, nroff-mode, reb-mode.
Examples of modes that need :help in menus: outline-mode, org-mode.
Probably there are much more than these.

If many people volunteer this can be done relatively quickly... 

Please help!

Thanks
