Some threads about where users can create unofficial documentation

Every time I have a question I spend hours reading the forums and pulling out the best answers. (The answers often conflict.) I'm sure others do too. It seems to me it'd be useful to add our summaries to the documentation. Particularly for the contributed modules. Is it possible to create a space on the created modules where people can leave comments that would be unofficial documentation? Otherwise, every time I research a module I read the forums, the bug reports, and every user has to do this again.
