We should strongly consider migrating our packaging guidelines *out* of the openSUSE Wiki into a documentation site system. Wikis are terrible for navigation, discovery, SEO, and content control.
Fedora migrated their guidelines out of the wiki last year[1][2] and Debian has always had theirs not in a wiki[3]. When Fedora moved, they were able to simplify their change control process to just "make a pull request and the packaging committee would review it". I'm not saying that we have to exactly replicate that process, but pulling it out of the wiki and using a docs system for documentation would be nice...
I'd definitely welcome having the guidelines outside of the wiki and
people actually reviewing those. However, I really don't know who those
reviewers should be, as currently every devel project has its own set of
unwritten rules that only a handful of people really know. And then
there would be the question where these guidelines should be put?
