Yes :-)

I think that every WG should have a short page on wiki.ietf.org, even if that page
just points to some external site.
(or, I don't think that WGs should be forced to use the new wiki if they
don't want to.  OTH, I found the old wiki very hard to use as a WG, and I
think others did too.  The ability to maintain your wiki pages via git is a
big boon to me)
