The wiki is documentation rather than support, so I put it in the other column.

Agreed on the redundancy, not sure about unofficial services being on
the front page?

Sounds useful but... The problem is that not every package will have a
wiki page and so we need some mechanism to figure out which ones do.
Should be easy enough to add a page list export to wiki.debian.org if
you would like to start this project. I would suggest using
/PackageHints/sourcepackagename as the naming scheme and starting by
describing the project on the /PackageHints page.
