Wikis provide a structure for creating hypertext documents by cross linking, 
organization, etc.  They were designed for that.  You can think of Wikipedia as 
one giant organized hypertext with collaborative, crowd-sourced authoring and 
editing (and curation by some official editors).

It appears that the project to make User Guides as wiki documents is similar to 
that.  I was using jargon from the Hypertext world, rather than what we may be 
accustomed to here is all.  

I am assuming that the wiki result is intended to be the documentation of 
record.  Isn't that so?
