I suppose you mean particular library's documentation pages
pointing to particular wiki pages. Otherwise it's already
there (http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl,

Most often this is a preferred way.

1) Query the library maintainers for the interest/making sense.
2) Write it up.
3) Send it here.
