I agree, I don't think or mean to throw away the wiki.
But more along the lines was thinking of upstreaming some of the more
mature examples and information there.
For example, this page is already covered in the docs:
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HowToExtractAndRemoveClosedCaptions

I guess framed the thought in a too general fashion.
Maybe a little tidying is all I was wanting and is irrelevant of this
conversation so I'll compartmentalize it for later.

That's a fair and valid point.
