Just my two cents on matter based on personal experience:

Issue trackers: I personally suspect as adoption increases the popular 
expectation will be for a more ticket oriented (i.e. Github like) experience 
for filing bugs and feature requests. For better or worse people seem to feel 
there’s a large commitment increase on their part from filing a ticket  and 
being part of a community mailing list.

Wikis: As for wikis, I always have had mixed feelings about them. For large 
projects like Gentoo or Arch they’re great, in my opinion, for community 
knowledge accumulation. But for smaller projects I’ve found having something to 
the effect of a community maintained `docs/` directory with markdown is just 
simpler and easier. Plus you can always go back and generate some pretty 
webpages out of the `docs/` markdown files if you’ve reached the adoption level 
where people expect documentation to be in webpages.

Cheers,
Ferris
