The problem with TikiWiki.org isn't so much the dissonance between
media styles, as the lack of structure. Without structure, there's no
"place" for things to fit, and everyone has a different idea where
things go. As a result, some topics are repeated several times. Some
topics are there, but so incomplete they might as well be deleted
until someone can complete them. Some topics are just stubs, for
someone else's imagined but unfinished structure.

In programming they used to talk a lot about "spaghetti code". With an
unstructured Wiki, you end up with "spaghetti documentation".

So I would suggest not just a master list of topics, but a master
table of contents as a backbone to guide contributors, reduce
repetition, and clarify omissions.
