I've linked the gophers discord. It's a well administered discord which already got many members, but it was never officially linked. For many people it's a quality proof if a discord is linked on the official page. I think there are much more people out there, who would prefer to use discord instead of slack or irc.
The discord already got many users without even being promoted, so it's very likely there are many people who are interested in a discord, but they don't want to use unofficial discords. This discord shouldn't be seen as a competitor for the slack, it's a platform for those, who don't want to use slack.

The spec used the term "conversion" somewhat indiscriminately for
explicit conversions that appear literally in the source, and implicit
conversions that are implied by the context of an expression.
Be clearer about it by defining the terms.
Also, state that integer to string conversions of the form string(x)
are never implicit. This clarifies situations where implicit conversions
might require an integer to change to a string (but don't and never have
done so). See line 3948.
Fixes#26313.

The wiki page has recently been created, and at this time it's
just a stub. It's expected that support for WebAssembly will be
evolving over time, and the wiki page can be kept updated with
helpful information, how to get started, tips and tricks, etc.
Use present tense because it's expected that there will be more
general information added by the time Go 1.11 release happens.
Also add link to https://webassembly.org/ in first paragraph.

For contributors looking for new issues to contribute to it can be
difficult to find issues that need a fix and don't already have a fix
being considered. There are several labels that help guide the way
already, like `NeedsFix`, `HelpWanted`. But many issues with this label
will already have a CL. For new contributors this can be especially
difficult.
