Newbie, need help with basic data modeling, Q&A db

Working with Data

Hi guys

I need to create a Q&A db with the Q and A as separate entities (this is what I am thinking now, please feel free to suggest alternatives). Since this is a NoSQL DB what is the best way to correlate the records and how should I store them? Editing the Qs and As could happen frequently and keeping 2-3 previous versions of each will be needed.
Any pointers to primers and articles or even books that can educate me in this direction are more than welcome
Thank you
LU

Update: of course I started googling and while I will be getting answers here I am reading https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/applications/data-models-relationships/
Update2: Ok it seems that the embedded documents is the way to go here, and not separate entities
