Documentation, as mentioned before, is important to all open-source projects. Sugar Labs has all documentation for its learner applications called “Activities” at one place in the Activities#Sugar_Activities. Some problem (#risks) that I found with this sort of implementation is as follows:- <br />

# '''Difficult to add, edit and manage'''  - In reference to the conversation [archive/sugar-devel] As a user, I need to create an account for editing privileges. Which is very tiresome to be very honest, hence discouraging contributions.

# '''Size issues''' - Wiki is being hosted on the a server. With the growing number of activities, the size occupied by them will increase leading to rise in maintenance cost. Not to mention buying more space.

I did extensive research on the same and found many such problems with the wiki. According to my experience in open-source, users just need information fast, easily accessible and neatly organized. A new method to make that information organized should be brought in place for the betterment of the whole community. GitHub could be the solution to all our problems () WikiPort is a tool that helps in migration process of wiki’s to Github hosted README.md.
