In case I forgot earlier, many thanks for running the link check!

You didn't forget, but in any case you're quite welcome.

Would a completely separate wiki be an option? It's not that I want a wiki
for non-related LyX stuff, it's only that it'd be nice to be able to refer
LyX users to some place. In addition, I suspect that LyX users learning to
edit wiki pages will eventually benefit the documentation project as a
whole. A third benefit is that people more actively editing a wiki
automatically means more feedback to me about the site's usuabiliy and any
bugs - this is of course both good and bad ;-)

Well, if you have capacity (both disk and bandwidth) and are willing to offer this, I guess why not? I'm a bit fuzzy on what it would look like, though. My impression was that wikis were typically "themed"; the LyX wiki, for instance, deals pretty much exclusively with things related to LyX. Would an unthemed wiki draw visitors?

Anyway, the only concern I would have would be with legal issues relating to what got posted. Would you monitor the content (and reserve editorial rights)? If not, what are the relevant laws (and for that matter, what's the relevant jurisdiction -- you're in Sweden but the wiki is hosted in Norway)? We're still trying to sort this stuff out over here, as the recent flap over the Wikipedia attests.

Cheers,
