I don't understand your example.  If you say original material then I 
have to respect that but there are sections of your guide that are 
extremely close to material in the official system documentation. If 
this is entirely your own work then you can do what you want with it of 
course.  If your original material is from a different license then 
incorporating it into our Wiki is an issue, which as I said earlier I am 
not in a position to comment on - Matthew is the subject matter expert 
there.

I don't wish to assist by giving feedback or direction to a project 
which has no defined license nor where its usage is not yet defined but 
best of luck with your project.
