That page says
/begin quote
manual pages
Traditionally, all Unix programs are documented with manual
pages, reference manuals made available through the man command.
They usually aren't meant for beginners. You can search for and
read the manual pages available in Debian in
http://manpages.debian.org/.
/end quote
"http://manpages.debian.org/" is a link to
http://manpages.debian.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi
http://manpages.debian.org/ gives the "Welcome to glinka!"
message.> http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals
