What you’re observing are different communities and different threads. The same community lemmy.world/c/news is roughly the same across most instances. A specific thread in some community in lemmy.ca is roughly the same when viewed from most instances. I imagine a wiki page would function like a thread in Lemmy. Any instance federating with most instances would see roughly the same version of the wiki page as the originating instance.
That could be, I was thinking if the pages were more like the communities. I would have to think they need to be for any kind of moderation, otherwise who approves edits or has edit permissions? If someone else doesn’t agree with the vision on the existing page/thread what stops someone from putting up an alternate version?
Moderation, voting, there are options. My point is whatever the version is of a community or a thread on Lemmy on its host instance, nearly the same the version is on another Lemmy instance that federates with most of the same instances. If we consider just 2 instances federating with each other, and users have no blocklists, and all federation updates are perfectly transferred (no networking issues), then a community in one instance would look identical on the other. So would a thread. After moderation actions and all.
