I suggest that instead of a wiki, the documentation gets into the main repo in 
a "documentation" folder, as .mediawiki and/or as .md and/as .adoc files. 
together with the source code. I think this allows a better synchronization of 
source vs doc as it's possible to say on a Gerrit patch or PR "Please update 
file xyz.adoc" at the same time. It also allows to track contributors to 
documentation as code contributors, reflected in the same Git history, 
facilitating inclusion of doc related changes in N&N, which is relatively fair.
Since GitHub provides an "edit" button which automatically starts a PR and has 
a good preview for doc files, it is as simple to contribute to doc in the 
GitHub repo than it is the contribute directly to a wiki. It also allows to 
enforce review which ultimately lead to more awareness from committers about 
what needs to be documented (leading to ideas of improvements) and improve 
quality of the documentation (preventing erroneous statements in documentation).

Cheers
