What is: *** no important things are needed to write down.***

Q:
2. *** no important things are needed to write down.***
It is from astdentpassage.
I can't really catch its meaning. I think of a lot of alternatives. See which is better:
- But this article is of no importance/significance // just trivia.
- But only trivia are included in this article.

Are the above grammatically correct?
Which is the best?

  • It doesn't mention an article, so is that extra context which you have added in your comments, Wai Wai?
