One comment only: the wiki search is weird. We have some options.

1) Remove the 'Go' button from the search bar on the side, or make it
the non-default (clicking 'Search' would complete the search no matter
what)

2) Fix search by fixing every single wiki page title

"1" could be done somewhat quickly, I could write a patch for
Infrastructure at some point. "2" is what we're working on now.
