Is this a worthwhile thought? Fedora used to use MoinMoin where categories were extremely slow and sub pages were the only way to do things. After the switch to MediaWiki, categories are the way to go but the conversion process is not over.
Susan Lauber, Ian Weller and others are working on this conversion. You can see some notes at http://travelingtrainer.laubersolutions.com/search/label/planet_fedora and more discussions at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-wiki IIRC, we have over 10000 pages in the wiki and it is going to take sometime..
