Description
The current list of warehouse paths _sort of goes along the lines of the various scrapers we are using, but not really and this gets confusing particularly as it seems to give prominence to content for no obvious reason (e.g. vikidia, psiram). I also understand that besides a modicum of ordering available file this system may be used by various mirrors to pick and chose which content they want to mirror (in practice however only the Wikimedia Foundation restricts its mirroring to Wikimedia-related content).
I suggest simplifying the list of warehouses to be more congruent with our scrapers, ie:
freecodecamp
gutenberg
ifixit
nautilus
openedx
phet
stackexchange
youtube (incl. ted)
wikihow
wikimedia
other wikis
(not discussing the /.hidden folders that have their own, clearly-defined purpose)
The naming is not 100% ideal as we need to force a distinction between WMF and non-WMF wikis but other than that it seems a move in the right direction.
