I've attempted to do something similar years ago...
I used to host an internal only access Intranet knowledge base for all things IT when I was still starting out...

I started getting pretty good with advanced Active Directory and Exchange
tasks - the kind of advanced stuff that stumps most people, and started to document the best practices that we as IT admins should be employing for all
AD and Exchange deployments.

Problem is - its all at my house - not at work lol...
So I put together a Wordpress site that's publicly accessible, but now the
task comes to properly transition everything from my ancient notes based intranet to a more modern WebUI - correcting grammer, spelling, adding
images, and generally updating content to be more relevant with current
OSes...

Its a timely process... I've started - I've ages to go :D

One of the guys at the office was joking in a team meeting about how I like
to document things very methodically and suggested we have a site called askflorey.com - so I checked, registered it, and changed my Wordpress site domain to that instead :D - it stuck!

Documentation = time consuming but extremely important, and like you say, has to be worth it, ie: no going back to Google to look up what you already have tucked away...

IT just careful or is the org following some ISO standard like ISO27000 / ISO27001 ?

There have been times I've had to look up a BBS issue, gone to google
and found the answer in someone's googled web message bases...

I'm about to undertake a massive documentation effort at work covering
server, desktop, networking and cloud and on-prem servers, bouncing
around the idea of indexing formatted documents versus creating a wiki.
I'm leaning to the latter, for a change.

Its a big undertaking and I applaud anyone that undertakes the arduous
process to methodically go through a system and document the absolute crap
out of it! Good luck!!

Also, yeah, go web based (usable on virtually any web device), and as a
bonus, can attach documents for download!
