It’d be really nice if someone could document the generic Decisions, what triggers them to become available, what they cost, what they do.
Compared to the Stellaris Wiki, the HoI4 Wiki has some glaring holes.

just how accurate is the wiki anyway

When I find a mistake, inclarity, or a needed update, I open the edit mode and try to make simple minimal changes that don't disturb the formatting and page structure - which I have occasionally recalled in part but just won't stand fast in memory against all the systems and details and formatting I need to keep in mind in other things. This should not deter contributions carefully made.
There wikis have article and section version tags to indicate the version they are accurate for.
as outlined in the thread, in version 1.5 the version the page in question is accurate for, the correct number was 4, not 3. the wiki said 3. the wiki was wrong.
The thread you linked is specifically about the 1.6 naval combat system. There was no fixed ideal ratios in 1.5, just rough recommendations.
was I really THAT unclear in my thread?
There have been fixed ideal ratios since, from what I can tell, 1.0.

this edit, from may of 2018, contains
"BEST_CAPITALS_TO_SCREENS_RATIO 0.25"
meaning 4 to 1.
despite that, 3 to 1. was on the wiki.
and had been since 2016
https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/index.php?title=Naval_warfare&oldid=10962
"All the ships seem to have their place. It is a good idea to have 3 screen ships for every capital ship in your battle fleet."
The comment behind this define is: "capitals / screens ratio used for creating FEX groups in naval combat". 99% of battles had just one fire exchange group per side in 1.5, the resident naval expert @Axe99 didn't even know they existed in the game. It had no direct impact on combat performance and likely the whole FEX concept was scrapped in 1.6.
1:4 was not the "correct" or "ideal" ratio. There may be many inaccurate things in the wiki but not this.
I also made the modder's version of @sterrius ' nice post. It'd be great if it could get linked to the Wiki, too, since anything more than minor Wiki edits is beyond my expertise, too.

Made a detection guide. Very different now from the 1.0 to 1.5.

The Mexico page uses the wrong image for the Mexican Focus Tree: it uses the earlier version seen in the Mexico Dev Diary, instead of the correct finalized version seen in-game.
Also, the World Maps in the Countries page should be updated to account for all the changes made for Man the Guns.

The main body of the style guide page is missing: https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki:Style
It looks like it should get transcluded from somewhere but I don't know how to fix it.

I believe that a link for the country style guide is just below the main article title. The link that I am referring to is: https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki:Style/Country .
Yes but between that link and the assessment table, there were multiple sections about writing style, wiki formatting, linking etc. In the page's source it says {{raw:Central::Central:Style}} which doesn't seem to work. The EU4 style guide has the same problem, compare the current version and this archived version.
Edit: this is the page that should get transcluded https://central.paradoxwikis.com/Central:Style
Edit2: perhaps "scary transclusions" was disabled? https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Special:Interwiki

Something big appears to be happening with re-classifying the pages in the wiki. Practically all of the links in the Assessment column of the wiki style guidelines page lead to additional links that are all in the "Talk" (discussion) phase.
Further investigation of "Most transcluded pages" https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/index.php?title=Special:MostTranscludedPages&limit=250&offset=0 showed 227 items of which items 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 156, and 162 involoved the key word "Country". Items 156 and 162 are waiting to be created and are respectively labeled "Template:Country navbox/Guides" and "Template:Country navbox/No Guide".
We're having some problems with translcuding from Central and Devops are working on it.
