When I started mapping, the wiki was prominently linked from the map page and 
the wiki start page led to the various sections for beginners as well as more 
detailed documentation of map features, for developers etc.

Some years later the wiki link got hidden behind the help link, where it is the 
very last point after links to the forum, mailings lists (!), irc, help forum, 
switch2osm, „for organisations“, etc.
It might look for a newbie as if the wiki is the least interesting source for 
someone looking for help...
