Can you explain more? As I understand it, the tasking manager is a very specialist tool that will not usually be the first thing a beginner comes into contact with. Beginners in OSM usually start with mapping things they are familiar with, like that bakery around the corner from where they live. They choose their own field of activity. The tasking manager is a coordination platform that lets *other* people tell you what you should be doing. It is used for unusual purposes like data imports or HOT activations, but it is far from the standard mode of working for beginners. > 1.

We have plenty. > 2.Adding user comments to the documentation. This kind of depends on which platform you have in mind. The Wiki, of course, already allows everyone to edit the documentation. If you're thinking of another platform, the mechanism for reader participation might be different.
