I think I more or less agree. Our wiki doesn't look terrible, but I'm
sure that even with a few minor tweaks it could look a lot
friendlier. For example:

- The line spacing in the left nav bar looks too much.

- There's a bug with indentation of TOCs, e.g. look at the bullets
in the TOC here:

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Tutorial

- The default font is ugly, and too small.

All IMHO, of course, and I'm not a designer.
