This sounds like a great idea. Is there a site URL (or repository URL or something) for it?

It does have problems. What I think it needs is 1) a LOT of editing, both for consistency and for just general editing issues (proofreading and such), and 2) ideally to be moved away from that site. I don't spend much time there. When I do visit a page there, I get (as you said) ads and pictures, frequently obscuring actual useful text on the page I am trying to see, and things like audio automatically playing when the page loads. There's a lot of good stuff on that wiki and there has to be a better place for it. (I don't know who manages it, but hopefully whoever it is is reading this… :D )
