I personally think it's a mistake to create our own wiki from scratch when mediawiki is already available on wikia, with the ability for anonymous write access with spam control tools.

I like the idea of editing in Vim.

I understand there's a way to get a filesystem dump of all the wikia pages. Once I think there was even a way to mount the wiki as a filesystem (at least on Linux).

I'd rather see efforts into improving the use of Vim with and the documentation of these features if they still exist.

Since you've gone ahead and made the Github "wiki" anyway...Github also has a "clone in Windows" tool, and there are official git clients for Windows. I'm not a fan of the official GUI but the command-line is there and completely functional.
