As Max's wiki challenge series showed[1], the most hit pages on the
wiki are often focused on end-users of Fedora Linux trying to get
stuff done: install Flash, use EPEL, build a custom kernel, install
WINE, etc.
It's a polyfaced wiki, we might have >1 deeplink on the front page of
fp.org, as I said elsewhere in this thread.

[1] From the first post: "... mine our web logs every week or so, and
pluck out a few wiki pages that are getting a ton of hits ..." I
don't see where to easily see the web logs
(http://fedoraproject.org/awstats/ doesn't have a direct wiki
category), but I've seen the lists before, and concur they are
highly populated with non-contributor-focused content.
