Yeah, the lack of curation there is exactly why we generally *don't* link
to the wiki from the formal docs. We should make more of an effort to
transpose vetted info about this topic into the docs, though.

Hm. I'd vote against including those in the docs' list, because we can't
as-a-community review their quality and suitability. However, I'm not
sure that there's anything wrong with having them in the wiki's list
as long as they're appropriately marked as not-OSS.
