I once tried to edit a broken link in current documentation and lost hope after 
10 minutes of efforts.

Being a sysadmin, I understand the fear of unknown/untrusted people accessing 
stuff and performing uncontrolled changes, but generally speaking I believe the 
majority of this community is not driven by 10y old cracker attitudes: I trust 
that the additional value provided by people will greatly overcome a few typos 
and errors.

+1, github's contribution workflow is terrible and doesn't make any
sense for wiki pages.
