The metacademy project seems very interesting but I feel that it is not yet mature enough to be considered a de-facto reference to link to.
In particular I think there are major concepts still missing. For instance for the AdaBoost entry you mention, one might have expected to have links to related concepts such as Boosting, Gradient Boosting and Ensemble learning in general. However those entries do not exist (yet). There is an entry for "boosting as optimization" [1] but it does not give the big picture on boosting as a sub family of the family of ensemble learning algorithm. In this respect I find the wikipedia article [2] a better starting point to learn about the relationships between those concept even though it is not as structured as a the average metacademy entry.
