It's probably best to just send a private message to the author to ask.
In your private message, it might be a good idea to include certain
important information, such as:

 * What license the wiki documentation falls under [1]
 * How the author will be credited
 * How the author can contact you or the Doc Team if they have further
questions

Thanks,

Phil
