I believe the spirit of the Wiki is that anyone can edit it. Only those
snippets that are marked Category:Included in the official documentation -
LilyPond wiki
<https://wiki.lilypond.community/wiki/Category:Included_in_the_official_documentation>
should not be touched.

… as Carl suggests here, getting input from this user list before adding a
snippet to the Wiki is often a good idea. I have done so myself.

In case this is helpful inspiration … here is an example of a Wiki page
that intentionally shows multiple ways of doing the same basic thing all
within a single page/snippet: Typesetting IPA transcriptions for lyrics -
LilyPond wiki
