Using one Wiki for everything has another little drawback: you can't
limit search to a subsection of the wiki.

Let's say a user searches for "kblocks". If it was a search on
UserBase, it gives 0 results and that's it - there is no user
documentation for it on UserBase. However if it was a single Wiki for
everything, you would see about 20 results, all of them are technical,
and the user would need to go through all of them just to find that
none of those are relevant.

On the other hand, I can't imagine a person who uses MediaWiki search
function in 2019, other than me.
