I've concluded that designing a wiki is as

I'm afraid I'll
have to agree there; I've realized that my initial hope
that the wiki will be self-organizing from the start was actually quite
naive....
Organizing a Wiki is a job for one or more persons who are
enthousiastic about wiki and know something about the content and will
actually once in a while go through the wiki to bring the order and
organization to things. Once users see the new organization (and if it
is one that works) they will bring in new documents to that structure.
In so far Wikipedia actually *is* a good example. But I agree that
there are now so many organizational elements in the wikipedia that I
can't find the one I need anymore. But that may be a side effect of
having a 'general interest' wiki instead of a special interest wiki.
