At the oVirt project we used to have a moinmo.in based website and we migrated it to https://jekyllrb.com/ . The pages can be written in markdown or asciidoc and the site is maintained in a git repository so it can be on pagure/gitlab/github as preferred by CentOS Project.
Github supports jekyll-based sites and wikis, and both can take the usual github pushes and gets and forks. Only difference is when you push a jekyll change it automagically tests it before committing to the site.
Also, you can test the jekyll site locally in your computer.
If the SIGs are already using jekyll, we can just get their templates, wash them, and use them.

Let's start discussing the future of wiki.centos.org !
There was a CentOS Docs SIG day happening on monday after Fosdem and during that day, we started to discuss the future of wiki.centos.org.
As a reminder : https://wiki.centos.org is actually powered by moin (http://moinmo.in/), which is :
- python 2.x based
- unmaintained
It's also running on CentOS Linux 7 (for these requirements), itself going EOL next year. Also worth adding that it's under constant spammer load, with plenty of bots trying to write content, be denied, and trying in a different way, so it's really a "whack a mole" game.
For all these reasons, it has to be replaced by something else, (still a wiki) or even better, be decommissioned entirely and eventually moved to a git workflow.
FWIW, it's what is used for all websites from various SIGs under https://sigs.centos.org (including the SIG guide itself, https://sigs.centos.org/guide)
As a follow-up on the CentOS SIG day, an investigation (see https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issue/1061) was started as a PoC to just extract wiki content in a readable (static) format, so that we can still host a "read-only" version (archived) of wiki content, while a new service (wiki or else) would replace it.
All comments/remarks are welcome, and let's have a plan about what to do (the sooner, the better)
