Ask HN: Should the ArchWiki be renamed to the LinuxWiki (or something similar)?

The ArchWiki is widely known as being the best documentation not only for the Arch Linux distribution, but for all GNU/Linux distributions and packages generally. Would granting it the honour of representing all of them, through some edict from the Linux Foundation or whoever owns the trademark, improve adoption from Windows and MacOS users switching over to it since they now have an excellent generalised resource?

No. Why would it? While a lot of things there are universal the purpose is to support Arch Linux. If you can use it for another distro - use it. There are more important things to spend energy on then just renaming stuf pointlessly.
