[REM] project: collaborate.rst (#779)
These pages documented very straightforward screens and flows that a
user can easily figure out without the help of dedicated documentation.
Besides, those screens are frequently reworked, thus requiring to
maintain the related pages very closely.

This commit removes such low values pages to reduce the technical debt
and allow focusing on actually useful documentation pages.

Get Organized by Planning Activities
====================================
When you plan activities you minimize the risk of uncertainties, as you provide clear directions
for the course of your next action. In addition to that, you do not leave space for wasteful
activities and reduce the chance of having overlapping actions between team members.
Where do I see my schedule activities?
======================================
Access and manage your activities wherever you are in Odoo by the *Activities* menu.

Activities can be planned and managed from the chatter by clicking on *Schedule activity*,
or through Kanban views.

Set your activity types

A number of activities types are available by default in Odoo (call, email, meeting, etc.). However,
you can set new ones going to :menuselection:`Settings --> Activity types`.

If you need to create an activity type with an available calendar, make sure to create
it with an *Action to Perform* set as *Meeting*.
Recommend next activities

Odoo helps you to plan a flow of activities by allowing you to set *Recommended Next Activities*.
