"readme-burning-isos" is more targeted than the Installation Guide, but yeah, the same hoops.  After that, it is more or a circuitous problem; wiki gets more attention because it is more up to date...

This page and others are on my watchlist for this reason and I generally at least attempt to sync over your edits.  There's duplication, and then there's a situation where someone works on a problem, you discover the work doing QA, I find out about the work by stumbling onto a wiki edit or list discussion, then update the Guide.  I pipe up whenever someone brings up "improved documentation" because it isn't clear *what* is being referred to - wiki, manpage, blog post, whatever - and bugs against guides or some other form of direct contact with the docs team are a very rare result.
