Vim wikia has had a similar experience.

There are quite many options. Currently we have: - vim wikia - vim-scripts - vim.sf.net = vim.org - vam.mawercer.de (packages and sources connected to github, view of vim-addon-manager-known-repositories) - my vim wiki (based on git) It would be nicer if this all would be integrated in a central place. > PS: Ich glaube wir können auch deutsch sprechen, oder?
