Damien, thank you for contributing. You have multiple options. You can either report documentation issues here on the mailinglist, you can create a JIRA ticket or comment on an existing one or you could create an account on the Wiki yourself and post a request for access on this mailing list. That way you could edit the documentation yourself.
For the specific issue you reported. This has recently been changed in this ticket: <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7397> and as you can see Lefty already left a comment there that it needs to be documented on release of Hive 0.14.
