A token needs thewiki:writescope: Create, edit, move and delete wiki pagesGranted bywrite_api.Every operation this scope unlocksAudited · mutation
x-gitmoap-audit: {"kind":"audited","arg":"mutation"}
Quota · wiki pages per scope
x-gitmoap-quota: {"kind":"enforced","arg":"wiki_pages_per_scope"}
Writes the page to the wiki as a new commit. The path is the page's address and the title is
separate and can change later; the format defaults to Markdown. Refused when a page already
exists at the path, when the path starts with templates/ or attachments/, or when the
content is larger than 1 MiB. A wiki holds at most 5,000 pages. A wiki that reads its pages from
the repository is changed by committing there, not through this API. Developers and above.
