I'm still wondering why it was removed from the list on the wiki.
It _is_ listed on the wiki:
http://en.opensuse.org/Communicate/Mailinglists#Topic_Lists
- scroll down and you'll see "opensuse-offtopic@xxxxxxxxxxxx -
Discussions unrelated to openSUSE "


I don't know about the wiki, but I know it is not listed on
http://lists.opensuse.org/ on purpose. Why? Dunno.
It is not listed there, because it is not being archived by opensuse.
Why it is not being archived is another question, but the reasons seems
fairly obvious - nothing of "importance" or related to opensuse should
be posted there. I'm not sure though, you'll have to get a better answer
from the mailing list admins.

You can find archives of the offtopic list elsewhere though, such as
archivum.info and mail-archive.com.
It should be noted that most (all?) external sources stopped archiving
the list in January 2009 (IIRC, there was a problem with the opensuse
mailing list that unsubscribed a lot of people at that time, perhaps the
external archives got unsubscribed too, and never re-subscribed)
