Regarding the Arch Linux wiki page, are you referring to this site (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Main_page)? We don't have the resource to rebuild a wiki site from ground zero and prefer looking for a commercial available wiki package to jump start.

Mediawiki is supposed to be really good, my memory long term is really bad as installed it a couple of years ago and can not remember a thing.

Yeah its the content of the archlinux wiki its just top drawer and made me a big fan of archlinux after you get past the relatively steep learning curve of installing.
Big fan of archlinux and often its their wiki I am consulting with other distro's.

Back to mediawiki and this forum does it have any oauth plugins where it could be a oauth provider to the current mediawiki and allow users to have user pages.
They can link back to the forum in the guides section and if they get some 'likes' it would be easy to publish as a main article.
[EDIT] had a look and it doesn't you could just create a database trigger on new users as the username, passord and salt is often easy to replicate.
Or maybe its use the MyBB wiki plugin but have no idea how good it is.

I will do some reading on mediawiki and maybe set one up and see if any vague memories come back but mediawiki is very much the daddy of wiki software but its how you set it up and the extensions you use that makes it.

If mediawiki can provide wikipedia I am sure we could get something that will allow access in a similar way with a hierarchy of bureaucrats & editors and we all start as lowly users with only user page access.

I did set it up once and can not remember a damn thing apart from it took a bit to get my head round the permission concepts.
Thing is also posts on here could benefit from community feedback and there is no peer review method and I am sure there is a plugin or extension that would enable it.
Sure there is a rating mechanism never used mybb but its very similar to SMF (Simple Machines Forum) and that had a rake of plugins and methods for user post feedback.
MyBB seems a bit shy of functions maybe ProStats, Thank You/Like System+MyAlerts & Tapatalk support, maybe use the wiki plugin for mybb https://github.com/Krytic/MyBBWiki
Can not find a markdown editor for mybb though...

The archlinux wiki is also mediawiki...

Alternatives

https://github.com/parasew/instiki
https://www.dokuwiki.org
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome
https://www.bookstackapp.com/

Thanks on the suggestion and we will check on the mediawiki first. I also feel sad about a lot of information sparse around forum and not properly gather up.
