And maybe the BIGGEST reason why we do not see wiki much extensive editing is our user-base that is divided between maemo.org and talk.maemo.org. On that second when user is asked to register again after registering TMO probably most of people just leave it there and think WTF!

Easy, Fast, Simple.
As I said before, a wiki is the most powerful solution, but has its downsides...effort, how to know it exists, how to find...
Sticky Post would be easy to maintain and users are bumped to it by having as newest post!
Besides that, from my point of view, a wiki is simply over-engineered for most threads. A single regularly updated post is enough in most cases as proven in many threads with updated Post #1...
