Not a bad idea, but a fundamental problem with Job wiki is that job information is transient. It does not hold good forever. Public wikis are more suited to information which is constant and does not change or age (time out). Which is why Wikis are successful in storing and sharing knowledge (wikipedia!). They can be used for storing and sharing transient information also, but with appropriate safeguards. For example, in this case a time-stamp of the job posting should be mandatory. The good thing about a mailing list is that an email provides the timestamp automatically (same for a blog post), but that is not the case for most wikis, unless you try and look up the metadata regarding the edits.
