::* Currently Sugar Labs has multiple newcomer guides in the forms of a book, [https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Documentation_Team Sugar Wiki], and [https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs sugardoc], [https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Google_Code_In_2017/background GCI Starter].

::* I will try to bring the content of all these resources at a single place which would be sugardoc because we would be utilizing [http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/ sphinx] with [http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/theming.html classic] to convert markdown to HTML, pdf format. We have another alternative to display content on our dashboard using [http://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/embed.html ReadtheDoc Embed] feature.

Another alternative to display content on our dashboard is using [http://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/embed.html ReadtheDoc Embed] feature.

::* 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.
