So I want to create a page in Wikipedia but the more I write it out the more I realize that it is probably a little outside the scope of Wikipedia because it leans a little towards a guide and a little less towards an encyclopaedia article.

I guess my question is does anyone know of a good place to have something like that? It needs to be free and open to the public and open for anyone to edit and foss.

I know that there is the option of using wiki hostings to host a specific wiki but I think that that's an overkill because it can be summed up in a single article.

So does anyone know of a place which is similar to Wikipedia but a little more loose in its guidelines as to what content can be uploaded? Specifically guides.

It is, yeah, but you can also use it to host a static webpage: https://codeberg.page/
Personally, I use it together with mdBook, so I write my texts in Markdown and then get a webpage with search and such. There's lots of "static site generators" out there which do something similar.

It's a little tech-y for what you're hoping to do, but you could make use of the code tooling for collaboration. People could open issues, if they just want to make a suggestion, or they could create a pull request with a concrete change.
