New Open Steno Community Wiki

There's a new Open Steno Wiki on Miraheze, though with the following disclaimer: "This wiki is a work in progress and is not yet ready to replace the GitHub wiki."

The community members who set it up explained that they chose Miraheze for the following reasons:

• We can easily export the data
• We can easily import it somewhere else if we decide this isn't the right place (lots of converters to e.g. markdown exist)
• It's free and open source (no need to fiddle around with hosting when we are experimenting)

Why not a GitHub-backed markdown wiki (not completely ruled out for the future)?

• PRs can take a while (could be solved by more people with PR approval permission and/or automating approvals)
• Many people are not familiar with GitHub who would be more familiar with wikis
• Going through "official open steno" limits the kind of content that is appropriate
• Would need to decide what technology to use, who would implement it, etc. which would take a while

Why not the existing GitHub wiki?

• SEO is terrible
• No easy way to search page contents
• Attached to the Plover GitHub rather than open steno as a whole

The old Wiki has definitely gotten a bit old and musty, so I'm excited to see this new one spring up, and I'm looking forward to watching it take shape!
