If you ask a question, expect an answer ;-).  The difference between a 
multi level ordinary web page and the wiki is that since the wiki allows 
multiple people to easily edit and create new pages organizing 
information is a lot more harder. I spend hours fixing up things so that 
its easily accessible.  One of the rules of thumb here is that every 
page has to be accessible from the frontpage in about two or three 
clicks. If you create sub pages you need to own the main page and create 
links to all the sub pages from the main page. This is something that 
needs to be done in a regular fashion for Extras.

While it is easier for project pages such as Documentation or 
Ambassadors, the end user targeted is better found at the root level 
IMO.  If you create categories, then you can just use 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/CategoryCategory to keep track of the 
pages and use regex searches in the main pages to link to the 
information. If you are going to create sub pages, you own the 
responsibility in linking to the main pages.
