Documentation within an organization tends to go unused.
Documents get misplaced because there are lots of places to stash them, and the paths to the stashes are brittle and limited in number.
Documents go stale because their contents are copied rather than referenced, and there is no update mechanism.
Documents require a lot of extraneous scanning over irrelevant content when searching for specific information.
