I do not believe we need to move all or part of the guide to the

To be honest, editing the guide sucks. Contributing to the wiki is much
easier.

Especially if the concern is the guide being outdated, I see the problem
in the guide format. We had the recent discussion to move the guide to
another markup language but it was teared down. What else can we do to
attract more people for writing documentation?

We don't want more people writing the Guide. It should stay as a coherent document authored by one or a few individuals who have a handle on the whole thing.

I'm all for people adding documentation to the wiki, just to get it out there quickly, where it can be refined and polished until it's ready to be included in the Guide.
