Should be edited on the wiki, and when they reach their final form, they are transferred from the wiki to docs.fedoraproject.org. This may sound crazy but, why don't you move the contributors' pages to some static pages? Say, on their fedorapeople spaces, that way, they can customize them ;) and it'll be easier for whoever wants to view them, since it'll be just username.fedorapeople.org, for those who can't design their own pages, fedora-websites can be asked to create a template for them, not to mention that they can create a tiny webpage there, where they can have links to whatever they have in their space...
