 ### Background and Motivation

+The Foundation's community wiki instance was started in 2006 as somewhere for the community to collaborate on relevant content(documentation, meeting minutes, planning, etc) in a time where there was little integrated support for such activities. Now, it is more common and more convenient to find wiki content alongside the code repository. GitHub and Eclipse GitLab both support this more modern approach.
+
+Furthermore, we are aware that there is a non-negligible amount of stale, outdated orphaned and unmaintained content on the wiki which may have equally non-negligible consequences on our community as a whole : https://wiki.eclipse.org/Special:AncientPages
 
 As such our proposal is driven by the following:
 
 * Projects are being moved to newer services that integrate wiki support directly
-* Colocating this information alongside project code makes it easier for the project communities to find content.
+* Colocating this information alongside project code makes it easier for the project communities to find and maintain content.
 * Allowing IT staff to focus on services that add value. Duplicate services add little value.
 
 To that end the Foundation’s IT team will work towards shutting down the standalone wiki.eclipse.org instance.
