dividing up the wiki?

I've been thinking a little bit about why our collaborative documenation,
and, you know, why it's a painful mess despite all of the awesome interested
people we have. I think that part of it is that our wiki is intimidating,
and I think that's partly because we use the wiki in different ways all
together:

  1. End-user and developer documentation that isn't as formalized as that
     at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/ but is still very useful.

  2. Workspace for communication, like the features / changes pages, the
     font request workflow, or even just the packages wishlist.

  3. Free-for-all drafts and ideas that may eventually turn into one of the
     above and may go no where, but shouldn't really be mixed in because
     it's not at that level.

I wonder if there's a way we can make the distinction more obvious, and
steer people appropriately?
