After mulling with the topic for a while, I think that we should really try to make that wiki working actually.
It's a great staging area for content where people can edit without asking for permission. The issue right now is with our methodology. Maintainers should start subscribing to the change-feed and monitor the changes that way. We can also use the Talk pages to discuss about the content of specific pages. It would be good to assign an owner that can feel free to make broader changes. I know the wiki has a bad rep but it's mainly because of it's content than the actual tool. It wouldn't be too hard provided we manage to keep the spammers at bay. Speaking of spammers, I keep seeing new users appearing in the changefeed. What if we used github as an authentication source ? I'm sure they already do a great job at filtering-out the spammers. Anyways, I would be interested in helping out cleaning the content and potentially become one of the owners of it.
