Thanks a lot!

As explained in data/github_copycats.txt, Github wikis are not indexed by search engine, because of Github.

github-wiki-see.page is a service that allows indexing of GitHub Wikis that GitHub blocks indexing of which is nearly all of them. At the moment, only about a couple thousand GitHub Wikis are permitted to be indexed out of about 420,000 in existence. Please visit https://github-wiki-see.page for a more thorough and/or updated explanation of the situation. It's actually a helpful GitHub copycat. If you're annoyed at the service's interstitial, you may want to look at the service's Auto Redirect API document for examples/details/implementation to automatically redirect to GitHub.com's Wiki if you land on the service: https://github.com/nelsonjchen/github-wiki-see-rs/blob/master/AUTO_REDIRECT_API.md

I won't block it until Github allows all wikis to be indexed.
