PDF vs. HTML: pdf readers generally prefer to have consecutive documentation, with few links. HTML readers generally prefer to have links everywhere.

Those that produce both seem to choose a format that can produce both automatically by some program. For example the texinfo format. But that might unsuitable for LilyPond. So you might need you own format.

Stable docs vs. wiki: some people want an unchanging, complete, finished set of docs, particularly if they print them out. Other people like the constant flux of web 2.0 stuff.

These do different things. The docs should be designed to lower the need ask questions on the lists, I think.

A wiki can in fact be used to replace the LilyPond site altogether. One example is
  http://haskell.org/
which nowadays expand to
  http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell
So it is possibly the whole Haskell site. Once upon the time, the Haskell wiki was a separate project.
