Not sure what the solution is to this scenario aside from vigilance.
Leveraging the current lists:
The existing tips/mods lists have excellent exposure on the web - tons of inbound links and lots of visitors. Once the wiki is going, I could link from the lists to the relevant wiki articles to encourage visitors to delve deeper... assuming the quality of the wiki ultimately exceeds the current lists, which I'm sure it will if EM members collectively take it on.

To help fix this I was recommending a Moderator who will watch over the Wiki, if that person wants to step down (lack of interest) I would expect them to contact a site admin and have a replacement chosen. A regular member might loose interest, but I expect more from a moderator.
your link back to a thread is a good one, how about a new category "Wiki discussion topics" to put these threads in (easy to find them all). the Wiki moderator could also watch over this area.
