I tend to avoid the Debian Wiki, because it is a licensing mess: almost nobody cares about adding licensing info to the pages that are created (in order to make them DFSG-free), hence every Wiki user has the technical possibility to modify pages, but no legal permission to do so! I think this is terrible, especially for a project like Debian, which is *supposed* to care about software freedom, but then *so often* forgets about it... :-( See <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianWiki/LicencingTerms> <https://bugs.debian.org/385797> for the details. Among other things, the bug report has been even closed with wrong and rambling considerations... I think that it should be reopened. > And (unrelated to Debian) > may it be possible to submit to the FSF for inclusion?

[...] I really doubt the FSF would agree with my point of view, especially with my opinion on applying the same freedom standards to all types of works, rather than distinguishing programs, documentation, essays, artistic works, and so forth... -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ There's not a second to spare!
