The Debian wiki is basically the same as the Arch wiki, right?

I laughed really hard at the root password saved to a text file only root can read.

Depends on the topic. Debian stable isn’t releasing software as things go on but instead update the package repositories to a version they deem stable. Minor things can change, but also if a big package update dropped on upstream and arch shipped it, some parameters can become deprecated etc.

Stick to your distro’s wiki/bbs/irc when possible, they exist for a reason ;)
