Is it obvious enough from the man pages that this wouldn't be too useful to have on the Plan 9 wiki? I'm a big believer in the wiki, but not when it pushes one to avoid reading the authoritative documentation of the man pages.

http://www.plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Setting_up_Venti/index.html

has the gist of setting up venti by hand. The bits on re-configuring Fossil aren't there (save for the mention of the venti environment variable). In my mind the man pages pick up the slack of the wiki in this case.

Also, I personally use the 9fans archive as my own personal manual next to the man pages (and at last resort the wiki). I for some reason always get the impression that the wiki is missing bits... so I use it only has a means of discovering just what man page exactly I should be reading :)
