Really looking forward to this and hoping to contribute if possible. You've got a good list of things that would definitely be very helpful--and not just to newcomers.
Some ideas of things that (might) have helped me along the way:
* Thorough Database Schema documentation
* Server environment documentation (OS-specific pages with listing of requirements, "gotchas", etc.)
* List of third-party add-ons (AllaClone, Magelo, etc. with documentation)
* Updating Your Server How-tos with advice (backups, db updates, etc.), probably by platform
* Server Rules documentation (updated)
* Perl / Lua function reference documentation (like the EQEmu Ultimate Perl Reference, updated)
* Commands (GM) documentation (updated)
The only other thing I could suggest would be to have a "To-Do" mechanism in place to get input from operators as well. For instance, if I come across an inconsistency it would be great to have a way to report it--with the hope being that you don't have 10 operators all bugging you with the same issue at various times through different channels.
