This is a very interesting idea from pmario. Imagine if it was possible for 
visitors to edit the documentation *directly on tw.com* (...actually a 
local temporary copy on the screen). Export that single(!) tiddler to have 
it sent as a .tid file to tw.com.

Then what? Well, I can imagine many options, The tid should probably be 
sandboxed but it could be viewed from the original tiddler somehow (iframe 
in slider, or whatever).

...new visitors can read this hopefully improved *draft* and give it likes! 
When the number of likes reaches a threshold - voila, the original tiddler 
gets auto-replaced with the proposed one!!! Alternatively, a voluntary 
proofreader gets pinged at threshold for a final approval before it is 
published.

I'd think much documentation does not require deep technical competence 
only familiarity with tw, Proofreaders could even get pinged only for their 
favorite subjects if the tiddler is tagged.

There could also be dislikes. Negative threshold reached - poof!

The purpose is to have documentation as an ongoing activity spread out on 
many people where even small, small contributions on the whim add up to 
something meaningful. "... like tiddlers composing a full wiki" (ah, even 
poetry)
