Vincent,
  However your point about maintaining two sets of documentation would be a 
pain and not a good idea.
Not sure I understood your point! :) Could you explain why it’s not a good idea 
to try to have to maintain documentation content in a single place? I 
understand that we need several ways to reach a documentation place and I agree 
with having a FAQ entry for this precise example for that reason. However, I 
really think we need to try to have all documentation about a given feature in 
a single location as much as possible.

Hmm reading my comment I see how poorly it was written--I was agreeing with you. Let me try again...

"However your point about maintaining two sets of documentation [is a good one, that I had not considered and it ] would be a pain [to maintain redundant FAQ content as the technical aspects (and thus possibly the user interface) of XWiki changed] and [thus my approach is] not a good idea."
Maybe I am just addressing the wrong problem. My issue was that I could not find the 
existing documentation. I restored your version and just added "on how to 
restore deleted pages/attachments.”
I’ve also edited a bit the documentation page at 
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Index+Application

It’s now linked from 2 places I know of:
- 
http://main.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/How+do+I+restore+a+deleted+page+or+attachment
- http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/DocumentLifecycle#HRestore 
(which is the first entry I get in google when I search for “xwiki restore 
deleted attachment”)

Hope it’s now easier to get that information from the onset! :)
Always happy to be the "lowest common denominator."

Thanks for your help!
Sorry to be a pest.

Patrick
