[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Add Wiki Link to Heading (#3041)

> I mean that it's an external site in that you click the link and you end up on a different site. You can notice this when the top bar changes and all the links change and it everything looks different. The other links in that menu are not external sites, since you click on them and you are still on the same site, with the same menu and it looks the same and so on.

You don't think OSM's wiki, probably the de-facto source of documentation for all the mappers doesn't deserve the top-level navigation simply because it doesn't look the same?
If that's the criteria then https://www.openstreetmap.org/about shouldn't be there either since it looks completely different from all the other pages.
And does MediaWiki really doesn't have any option to customize the way header looks? There are no plugins/add-ons to add such functionality if it's missing?

> It's great that you find the wiki useful, but that doesn't mean that it should automatically get a link in that menu - there are more things to consider than that.

What's more important for day-to-day user of OSM: the primary reference source of the documentation and tags or links to "About" and "Copyright" pages?
How often when you map some area do you need to reference the copyright page?

Yes, copyright and proper attribution information is important, but such pages can be minimized/condensed/combined to free up space in the header for a wiki link. If you are already contributing to OSM that you means you already read those pages and know what's there.
