A wiki has a lot of appeal when it comes to reduced friction for infrequent or drive-by contributors.  However, it is my experience and belief that if you don’t have a strong community wiki-garderners it falls apart quickly.  If we want to go in this direction, I would encourage us to adopt the approach of the php manual (as I understand it).  Non-core maintainers add notes to pages.  Those notes are periodically reviewed and incorporated into the main manual.  At that point the notes disappear.  I don’t work with that project, but I’d love to know more about how their process works if someone knows.
