Can someone with an account with proper editing rights and who is 
knowledgeable about building DMD check what needs to be updated?

All i know is druntime was moved to the dmd repo, so this step 
should be removed

For the rest i'm not sure, i see mentions of ``make`` but there 
is no ``make`` for windows

I can't find any information about that `make` on windows

The wiki is not up to date

  Building dmd on windows has a long story on the forum :)
One guy made the detailed instruction, but unfortunately I can’t 
find it :(

Make could be installed from dmc, or better from msys64.

Check some info about building:

That's concerning, it's frustrating that people make breaking 
changes and don't bother updating the instruction on how to build 
it

I did a pass to remove the mention of druntime repo, but i'm not 
sure that's enough, i don't understand this guide

On Windows I have always used the Solution file to build it.

If the current information to build on Windows without VS is 
incorrect, please fix it if possible or let us know what is 
missing
