Once you've created wiki accounts, email this list to get write access. One thing to consider is prerequisites. Hadoop is not a place to learn about basic distributed system concepts (liveness, failures, RPC), though some of the specifics (how liveness is implemented, how Hadoop RPC works) are going to be relevant. It's probably best to list "things you need to know". In particular, you should know Java and its build and test tools before going near Hadoop. -steve
