"Bug" has a specific meaning when used in software / hardware projects. It 
means that the result of some operation is not what the developer intended. 
Usually it also means that other programs will be affected.

These are not bugs by any stretch of imagination. And the wiki is intended to 
operate as you describe. So go ahead and create these wiki pages and call 
it "website hall of shame", "new patent approval",  "vendor based syllabus", 
whatever. 
Just dont use buzz words that are totally out of context and convey the wrong 
info.
