one of the problems I see in the world of GNU/Linux is this tendency to have "per-distribution" documentation for thing which are not specific to a distribution, as evidenced by the fact that Debian users often find the Arch wiki useful.
I agree that the Debian Wiki should strive to document Debian-specific stuff. I recently deleted (sort-of) the page DotFiles¹, after a brief discussion on this list a month ago, because it was out-of-date with respect to Greg's wiki² and not really distribution specific (although there are distribution specific quirks, that Greg documents).
