Is it possible to create a WiKi on an organization level in GitHub? That is, I don't want a wiki in a single repository and I want to avoid creating a new empty repository only Wiki. Instead I want to create a Wiki for a whole organization. Possible?

It is possible to create a new folder from the web interface, but it would require you to have at least one file within the folder when creating it.
