I don't really see the need for another wiki, the current one would be 
fine to include the material you mention.

The current wiki is suffering from lack of contributors and a lot of 
vandalism. I've had to turn off anonymous contributions and even that 
has not stopped the amount of spam
http://www.permaculture.info/index.php/Special:Recentchanges
with about five per day.

What is really needed is a way to encourage more people to contribute, 
it is certainly worth mentioning on the permaculture list.
