Migrating wiki.s.o and intranet.s.o to GitLab?
Software Heritage currently has a public wiki and a private wiki.
GitLab can host wikis. Now that Software Heritage uses GitLab, is there any benefit of keeping two separate MediaWiki instances running? Could we use GitLab wikis instead?
GitLab wikis can be edited via the web interface–in various markup languages or with a WYSIWYG editor–or by cloning and pushing to a Git repository. This could better fit the various technical preferences than what MediaWiki offers. Being able to use GitLab Markdown instead of MediaWiki specific markup would mean one less markup syntax to learn and use.
