I'm not sure if it is a good idea.  We would loose a bit control, and 
would have git homepage and git wiki in separate domains.  On the other 
hand some of admin stuff would be passed to wiki hosting site.  
Bazaar-NG, Mercurial and Monotone (and also Emacs) have their own self 
hosted wikis.

Git homepage at git.or.cz (or git-scm.org), Git Wiki at 
git.or.cz/gitwiki and free git hosting at repo.or.cz are all provided 
by Petr 'Pasky' Baudis (thanks a lot, again!).

By the way, Git Wiki initially began as a "staging ground" for contents 
which would get incorporated into Git Homepage...
