I see this mind-map and think to myself there is good effort done in
thinking about it.

+1 to proceed with changes based on what's there. In my opinion, we
shouldn't worry too much about agreeing on structure. Our current wiki is
in a bad shape and any work done on it is better than keeping it as is.
