That's because you set woman-show-log too late: it should be set _before_ woman.elc is loaded. Alternatively, use the Customize feature to customize the value of the variable, and have Customize write the correct code into your .emacs. > Next one is the *Completions* buffer, I would like to nuke this buffer > as soon as Ive made a completion.

I don't see such a variable in my Emacs. Where did you hear about it? In any case, its name suggests that it removes the help _window_, not the *Help* buffer. I also don't see any sense in killing the *Help* buffer, because it will be reused (and recreated, if needed) by the next help command. It is also handy to go to that buffer if you forgot some detail.
