There is a wiki at http://fawn.unibw-hamburg.de/cgi-bin/Rwiki.pl but it
doesn't seem to get much use.

Last time I was hunting for help on R, I made the page
http://fawn.unibw-hamburg.de/cgi-bin/Rwiki.pl?SearchFunctions
 and in particular:

help.search.archive<-function(string){
   RURL="http://www.google.com/u/newcastlemaths"
   RSearchURL=paste(RURL,"?q=",string,sep='')
   browseURL(RSearchURL)
   return(invisible(0))
 }

help.search.archive('wiki') # example
