Starting a Wiki is very straightforward:

There is an SPSS wiki there:
spss.wikia.com
The wiki idea is intriguing and could be done regardless of any changes in Statalist. Having said that, I just looked at the SPSS wiki, and almost every link I clicked on said "You've followed a link to a page that doesn't exist yet." (The Marvel Comics Wiki is kind of nice though!) To make this idea fly, I suspect you either need

* A computer whiz kid grad student who'd rather work on web pages than his or her dissertation
* Somebody's 14 year old kid who'd be willing and able to get the shell set up
* Some startup effort by Statacorp

If somebody would get a bare bones wiki set up, perhaps others would be willing to submit sections on the programs they have written. I'd be willing to do something on oglm and gologit2 (provided I could figure out how to do it!)

Incidentally, Stata does have a minimalist web page on Wikipedia. People might consider fleshing it out:
