    @vril: Can you examine http://www.drasil.org/git-wiki GitHub also has a wiki system see https://docs.github.com/en/communities/documenting-your-project-with-wikis However, if hosting resources are available, and migrating from MediaWiki to Gollum https://github.com/gollum/gollum or to ikwiki http://ikwiki.info is something I would be willing to undertake and maintain.

But maybe it would be better to use an independent wiki since github is in the hands of microsoft (?). I'm using this site https://www.wikimatrix.org/ for understand the various functionality of every wiki. Refresh my memory, the actual wiki is with MediaWiki, but is a very old version no more upgradable.. possible? do i remember right? Because the last version look like full of functionality https://www.wikimatrix.org/show/mediawiki ikiwiki look to me too much minimal, I see in the usability section in https://www.wikimatrix.org/show/ikiwiki that there isn't the toolbar for formatting either. Unfortunately Gollum wiki there isn't on wikimatrix wiki list, anyway I was watching this page of screenshots for watching various features and look like good: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/wiki/Screenshots#viewing-and-editing-pages-globaltoc-macro . I saw there is also a tool ("caramelize") for migrating from other wikis

    wiki.xmpp.org runs an older version of MediaWiki, and upgrades are not easy because it uses a non-standard database backend on that host, I heard

    Hope there is a way to upgrade MediaWiki.
