I prefer "Community Help Wiki" over the others for a few reasons:

First, as Svetlana said, "Documentation" communicates something the wiki 
really isn't.

Second, I don't think just "Community Wiki" communicates what the wiki 
actually is. Saying it's a "help wiki" makes the purpose clear. 
Obviously we can't drop the word "community" either, because that would 
lose the meaning as well.

Cheers,
Pasi
