Aaron, re the learning curve for the wiki:
Well, some of the resource links given on the wiki for learning how to format a wiki entry, lead me to pages full of obscure tips and tricks, and very advanced features, and I found it hard to locate a "beginner's primer" type of article. people have been mass-editing wikis for a long time, but I guess not many blind people have been. I know html 4.0 fairly well, and didn't know the wiki formatting commands (and still don't). it would go a long way towards solving this if you were able to locate a "beginner's primer" and put a link to it on the primary wiki page.

People have been mass editing wikipedia for almost nine years now, so it's not particularly new technology. And the editor isn't that much more complicated (some would say less complicated) than your average blog interface.
