There is already a site that wove together Mathematica and MediaWiki.
The same could probably be done for SAGE. Of course, that site hasn't
done so well because the Mathematica user base is so small ...
Assuming that SAGE's user base is larger?

The SAGE wiki:

There is a link from the main page. MoinMoin with SAGE supports LaTeX.

So I should amend my comment by asking:
Why not place the documentation in a MoinMoinWiki?

It should be qualified that the user base for the site is small
because Mathematica already has a fair amount (actually, it is a
massive amount, but it isn't nearly enough for my taste) of
documentation.

I would vote for putting that content in the Guided Tour part of the
tutorial. I think the variety of documentation would be a little too
fragmented otherwise. In my limited experience so far, new users of
sage can already be confused about where they should look things up.

What would the plan for the plotting documentation be? Would there be
an overview of the plot objects followed by some small projects? For
me I sort of get the basics of plotting in SAGE but do not really know
how to do much in the way of mathematical art. For example I would
have no idea how to
Sounds like a great idea. You might consider adding a chapter
for users who are looking for pre-calculus help (trig, simple
algebra, other HS topics), an idea suggested by Mike O'Sullivan.
