A GitHub wiki is not a set-it-and-forget-it knowledge base. It’s a Git repo with an attractive UI wrapper—and like any repo, it can be nuked, poisoned, or kidnapped.
Or worse: the content is still there, but subtly wrong. Links point to malware. Pages have been replaced with rants. Contributors are locked out by a single rogue maintainer who changed the team’s SSH keys at 2 a.m.
