I think folks generally pin too high hopes as to the accuracy and timeliness of 
wiki entries - really it's just perceived as a distributed notepad, with no 
clear maintenance responsibility affixed to it. I doubt appeals towards 'wiki 
cleaning' will have any noticeable effect.

My credo is: if you want up-to-date information, it has to go into the manual 
proper - this _has_ the expectation of acurracy affixed, and there is some 
social pressure on authors to keep it up to date. 

So in that case, my recommendation would be to start a 'Modbus' manual section, 
with headlines about what it should contain.
