Dickie, I can see your point. To draw a comparison, though, I feel that if we'd told people that they had to post 25 times in the newbie section on FHF before joining in generally, we wouldn't have as dynamic, active and lively forum as we do....
To be fair I don't think it's quite the same, as the forum is something/somewhere where people can chat and ask questions, regardless of their expertise or knowledge.
Whereas the Wiki is for dissemination of accurate and relevant information.
Now I'm not saying that someone with less than 25 posts is not going to have valuable info for the Wiki, but I just feel that saying that Anyone can edit, is just going to give us more work keeping it in order.
I do understand the purpose of a Wiki, but there are a huge number of people who have to work full time trying to keep Wikipedia under control.
In theory we should open it upto anonymous edit as well...(like Wikipedia) but I just don't feel happy with that approach,
Anyway, all help gratefully received.
