If you miss it so much we have something much better

Github wikis, we never use

Each of our books is hosted in a Github repo and each repo always comes
with its own wiki using very simple markdown as everything else in Github

You do not have content but only a snippet of code to offer ? No problem we
have you covered there too create a gist for it , link it in the wiki and
we will add it back to book. Gists even offer their own version control
which means you can keep working and improving your code snippet for years
to come without braking the workflow.

Then its a question of copy pasting the contents to pillar and adding them
in our books , or if you do not mind the extra work write it in pillar
directly and add it to the relevant book

All books can be added to CI and generate automagically html pages for
direct access , we do this already with PBE 5.

Our Pharo "wiki" is easier to use and far more powerful than anything
Squeak ever had, no offence intended of course to the original creators and
maintainers of Squeak wiki.

Also github offers hosting of static webpages we could have a website
hosted as github repo made with pillar that link to all wikis, gists and
book artifacts. I can create this in an hour of work its not big deal. I
would have done this myself but Stef already has added the books to
Pharo.org which I find is more or less the same thing.
