There's a usability issue here in the discussion of FAQs.
Makes sense that "newbies" be asked to contribute some special FAQs
for other newbies. "Old pros" can "look over the shoulder" and be sure
the facts are right.
But the newbie's own descriptions and labels (nomenclature) will
likely be more appropriate for the other newbies that have general
questions.
It is very difficult for "senior users" to anticipate the newebie
questions and remember how puzzling it all was for us.
Hell, I'm still puzzled a lot of the time.
My two cents.
