I'd forgotten about it handling non-markdown. Frankly, the GitHub wiki works well enough for me and only the lack of directories has bothered _me_, but it's not about what I like. I suspect the problems are cultural ones, around edit access rights controls, URLs which are concise, and integration. We use GitHub already, to the point of ensuring that everyone has two-factor auth turned on and access is mostly seamless. I think this highlights that I've failed to establish a clear set of requirements from those for who GitHub is not acceptable, only the requirements I have, which is a failing on my part. I'll try to remedy this.
