This is definitely a big thing. Vim.org scripts is a great site but 
it's slowly showing it's age - I see many users host their scripts 
elsewhere and use all kinds of different mediums to enable 
collaboration (private mail and websites, vim mailing list,
yahoo/google groups, sourceforge, googlecode etc). I also suspect the 
scripts could use the same cleanup that is done to tips right now.

I only wonder if a wiki would provide enough infrastructure for such 
project? For example: how could we get version control and issue 
tracking with tickets?

BTW, there was a thread on creating such centralized project on 
vim-dev recently ("Sourceforge et. al.") which resulted in creating 
vim-scripts (http://vim-scripts.googlecode.com/). I have not seen any 
mass migration of existing scripts done there though.

I think Vim Web Ring is supposed to collect these. But having all 
these links centralized and categorized in one place would be nice.

Some other ideas:
f Vim Wikibook
g Users' vimrc scripts
h Vim docs from vimdoc.sourceforge.net
i Links to articles (LinuxGazette etc.)
