I think it would be easier to solve the problems with the Wiki by integrating
it into the rest of the site. Addressing the separate navigation/layout style
is easy by using CSS and the HTML used for the navigation bar. I don't know
whether Ultraseek could also crawl through the Wiki.

I could name a few:

Daniel Dittmar (daniel at dittmar.net) - WebProgramming editor
Mike Rovner - BoostPython editor
Juergen Hermann - general cleaning

and I try to keep the PythonEditors and PythonHosting pages clean.
