I haven't read HxH, so I honestly couldn't answer that. Could be as simple as the audience that reads the series (a Shounen vs a Seinen). It could simply be how the material handles the subject and the character.

Since Ishida has written Mutsuki as living as a guy and addressed as such by other characters, I just think the wiki should reflect that fact. Ishida's writing style shows he puts a lot of thought into the words he uses, and the Japanese language is very gender-neutral so referencing a person's gender has to be intentionally done. Since he wrote Sasaki using male-gendered language to talk about Mutsuki in the second chapter, it seems like Ishida is handling Mutsuki as a male character.
