I think that badges make more sense; paying a content bounty  is an interesting 
idea, but it could also yield super low quality work, not to mention an 
enormous amount of work to review and test user submissions

Those mortar templates are great.

Btw we do have a successful bounty program in place for security related 
issues. We pay a lot of money each year to people who contribute to that 
program. So I don't think it is that crazy or not in the spirit of Mozilla to 
also do something similar for documentation contributors.

And the submissions would not be completely random of course. They would have 
to be on topic to be useful. We can have a list of things we would like to see 
written. And coordinate so that people don't work on duplicate things. This is 
also what Digital Ocean does. You first submit a proposal. (Which is really 'i 
want to write XYZ. Ok?')
