Sorry, I don't know where the wiki is either, but I would google my way out of the problem if I were you instead of sit and waiting.

When water is spilt on the keyboard, the keyboard should be disconnected immediately, then dry for at least a day before reconnecting again. Reconnecting within 6 hours of drying, since the water is still not vaporized, will make the circuit damaged permanently.

I think your keyboard is beyond repair. RMA it to make sure.

If the rma doesn't go through you can always take it apart for switches :0
