No you don't.  As a documentation guy, I have an entirely
*rational* dislike of wikis.  Trust me on this.  Give in to your
hate.  Join the Dark Side.  :)

Why don't you encourage users to send scripts to -users or you
personally?  That way, whenever you saw something good, you could
post it.  I'd feel better about using some random script for
backups if I knew that you had personally looked at it and given
it your stamp of approval.
