Hmm, excellent questions. I’m not totally sure. Perhaps the process of drafting out mediawiki pages could be best served through the Custom Wizard plugin.
The issue is volunnteers are having too tough a time writing mediawiki pages in 2020. It is something people master 100% or are terrible at. Hope this makes sense as a problem I hope to address. If not, don’t want to waste your time. 
I’ve been very interested in integrating Discourse with our Mediawiki installation to add user friendliness, but I notice a couple attempts to use Discourse for Discussions in mediawiki, have not worked out.
