We've had this discussion in the past (unfortunately I cannot find the mail thread
again).
AFAIR this was my POV:
* A page is the whole UI associated with a URL: content + skin + panels + etc
* A document is the metadata about the entity represented by the URL. It's a non
visual object.
For ex "Document Index" is thus valid if you consider not the visual thing but
that it's an index about the metadata. "Document Information" is also very
valid.

Hi,
We are using mixed naming when referring to a document/page, not only on
different pages, but also in the same context (Rename step for example).
There is also an issue referring to this problem
XWIKI-5401<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5401>and we need to
find an answer in order to move forward consistency.
So the question is which version we prefer: "Page" or "Document" ?
I'm voting +1 for "Page".
"Page" is more used IMO, especially in the "Space"/"Page"
context.
"Page" is more general than "Document" and better fitted for a
platform that
encapsulates all kind of content (not just documents).
Please cast your vote.
Thanks,
