That is a good link. Here are my thoughts. In most places in teh country water is abundant and cheap, much more so than chemicals. So I would partially drain the pool if it looks really dirty and green. How much to drain is an excellent question. If your pool is a liner based pool, you need to keep at least 12 to 18 inches of water in the shallow end to prevent the liner from moving around. If your pool is fiberglass, then you have to keep water in teh pool to keep it from floating up. If it is a gunnite pool, you can completely drain it, but snot want to keep it drained for very long. Someone with more gunnite knowledge can add more details to this.
So I woudl remove some water. Take a Leaf Rake attachment to your pool pole (like this one http://www.amazon.com/Swimline-8040-Professional-Heavy-Deep-Bag/dp/B000MOIWWM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464187999&sr=8-1&keywords=pool+leaf+rake) and then go along the bottom to scoop out any larger physical debris. At that point, add water, and as soon as possible, SLAM the pool and get the filter running. If it is really dirty water, you might need to backflush to clean your filters out a few times depending on your filter type.
