I haven't spent any time at all on the GitHub wiki setup to know how easily we
could curate this and more importantly how easily one can create useful deep

understand very well how to manage submissions to the GitHub.io
<http://GitHub.io> page through PRs.
I need to spend time to understand how that would work with the wiki. Because
the very last thing I need on earth is another time sucking task.
I'd still likely be leaning towards just a set of markdown pages on the
GitHub.io <http://GitHub.io> site instead of a wiki - but that's mainly because
I haven't done the work to investigate how that would really work.
That's exactly what github wikis are: a collection of markdown files managed in
a git repository. If you login to your account, you should see a link to clone
the wiki locally. Should be something like:
https://github.com/subsurface/subsurface.wiki.git
I'm using this for libdivecomputer, and so far it works well for me.
As far as I know, there is no interface for PRs, but you can always publish it
as a normal repo in the project, and then manually push to the wiki repo to
publish changes. It might even be possible to automate that last part with a
github action?
