If asked I'd suggest:

There could be some overview pages (made manually or by scripting)
handling special information requests. One, imho the first of those
pages would be an information page for beginners.

Like often seen on development project pages, one of the most visible
things is an index page having a small selction of the most searched
pages, titles may be "getting started", "help in development", and so
on.

Lazarus has no beginners page at all (checked quickly this moment, not
speaking about fpc).
