Newbie to wiktionary, yes, will attempt to fix the format sequence. However, this term entered the Oz language in late 1980s, as a result of extensive concern that the transfer of technology across cultures and contexts requires more skill and knowledge than just technological literacy or technical skill implies. This led to a Federal Government Policy on Technacy education for all Australians in 1996.

Technacy was picked up by the Australian Standard Macquarie Dictionary in 1991, and has been upgraded to the Concise and student version last year by the editors. The link to contact them is in the wiktionary reference page.
