Is there an official documentation for the python GDAL module?
There are various cookbooks, but scant information on each function or arguments for the most basic functions.

1For advanced Python users I found the rasterio documentation (in combination with the source code for examples) to be a good starting place. They have a good documentation and basically try to provide a more pythonic wrapper for GDAL with close to 100% coverage of the GDAL Python API. – Kersten Sep 29 '15 at 18:23
This is the python API documentation, but there's little explanation of arguments, outputs, etc. I use it in tandem with the c++ API documentation, the source code and the tutorial to figure things out. But a single python documentation source would be nice...

4I'd also include the GDAL Python Gotchas into this list, which explain the most common errors when using the Python API. – Kersten Sep 29 '15 at 18:24
