Collections are explained briefly in the Quick Start, and nowhere else. I've included most configuration options in the proposed outline for a Configuration doc (#685), but the collection types of file, folder, and filter are complex enough to require their own doc. Here's a rough outline pulled from #598 (with the order changed slightly):
Collections: file, folder, filter
(explain the differences, show config examples for each)
folder:
grouping of separate files based on the same template, stored in the same folder
UI widgets will be identical for all items in the folder (or all matching the filter, below)
may or may not be able to add new items (depending on create field)
filter:
used with folder type
can be used to pull only items matching the specified field value
requires field and value: must be an exact match
file:
single file or grouping of files, with fields specified for each file individually
can be useful for data files with settings or highly customized pages
cannot be filtered; cannot add new items
Note: regardless of collection type, each item in the main area of the collection browser represents a separate file (though separate files may be combined into a single published page via templating)

I forgot to mention that @tech4him1 started some work in this direction with #656 (then closed it in favor of this outline). Much of the work he did there pulls from the Quick Start, but I think we'll probably want to be more "reference-like" and less "instructional" with the structure of this doc, if that makes sense.
