::* As there is the only one source of newcomer documentation which is sugar doc and markdown is used there, so it will be easy for everyone to update it on Github repository.We will also add a page with the contributor on Sugar Doc where we can list the name of developers who contributed to Sugardoc and other projects. Also as it will be the only source documentation so the risk of "Rarely do new people begin to edit" is also removed. The developers can showcase their contribution on that page so it is sort of social reward for them by Sugarlabs.
