Description

Dear core-developer, contributor or foundation member.

## Introduction
*I already tried to contact @ngyingzhong and @kynkong91 on Telegram, but didn't receive any answer. I'm not sure, if they see messages there or not.*

The past months, I've spent a lot of time and energy creating a completely revamped Wiki website for the DeFiChain community.

**Please refrain from sharing the URL to the general community, since the domain will change anyway.**

✨ You can visit the current in development state of the wiki [here](https://0ptim.github.io/DeFiChain-Wiki/).
✨ The [source code](https://github.com/0ptim/DeFiChain-Wiki) is currently found under my account, but publicly available.

There are 4 topics I want to discuss. I hope, I am at the right spot to discuss these ideas. If not, please point me into the right direction.

1. Domain
2. Privacy Policy
3. Copyright
4. Source Code

## 1. Domain
Now that the project nears completion, I was thinking about how to put the Wiki out into the world.

### Option 1 (My proposed solution)
Bringing the new wiki closer to the official website and integrate it under the same domain. This could be something like:

- `wiki.defichain.com`
- `defichain.com/wiki`

> ✅ This solution would greatly improve the credibility of the source, because the domain is widely known.
> ✅ The Domain is not controlled by a single entity, but controlled by the non-profit Foundation.

### Option 2
Creating a completely new domain, which is then registered under my name.

> ❌ The domain would not be spread across the internet already.
> ❌ I would be the owner of the domain and if I abandon the project and keep the domain forever, all existing links would end at 404.

### Option 3
Using the domain of the current [wiki-project](https://defichain-wiki.com), which was initially funded by a CFP: `defichain-wiki.com`.

> ❌ The owner of the domain was not interested to use this domain for the new wiki, so this solution is out of the window.

▶ **What do you think about bringing the new wiki under the official defichain.com domain?**

## 2. Privacy Policy
Since every website needs a privacy policy, I for now just link to the official [Privacy Policy page](https://defichain.com/privacy-policy) on defichain.com.

▶ **Can I do this, or do I need a separate/new privacy policy?**

## 3. Copyright
At the bottom of the page, the text "Copyright © 2022 DeFiChain" is displayed.

![Copyright text in the footer](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/25133399/189714735-4b542311-ce08-4803-b23f-409d479cf573.png)

▶ **Is this done right, or do I need to change that?**

## 4. Source Code
The whole source code of the wiki is currently on my GitHub account. Because everyone can fork and download the code, it is already decentralized. But I thought maybe it would be better, if the code was under the [DeFiChain GitHub organization](https://github.com/DeFiCh).

▶ **What do you think?**
