Perhaps some mechanism to archive obsolete yet relevant wiki pages would be useful here. I'm not sure if the current wiki engine has such a feature, or what sort of effort would be required to hack one in if it doesn't, but being able to classify wiki pages into separate tiers of importance could be helpful.
I also think that keeping the docs for average users, power users, contributors and developers (there seems to me to be four sets of users, not three as has been mentioned earlier) makes sense since all of those groups have different needs. I as a developer would like to know how to navigate the Unity source code, or how to quickly learn the process for submitting a patch (from start to finish), without having to wade through pages of configuration file tweaks aimed at power users. A single landing page for everyone starting out may be appropriate, but after that I think they should diverge.
