I am concerned about adding backend scripts to the wiki. There's no reliable 
way to ensure those scripts would be correct, and it would be trivial for 
someone to inject malicious code into the scripts and have unsuspecting users 
run things which could damage/compromise their backend systems by copy/pasting 
and executing.

I fear that people would see it on the wiki and take that as an endorsement of 
those scripts.

By all means feel free to add a page to the wiki...

I do wonder, however, why don't you submit useful scripts to the project via 
bugzilla instead..? That way they would benefit from the many eyes of our 
signoff and quality assurance process, get documented as part of the standard 
documentation processes and be more accessible to end users?

Just some thoughts,
