It maybe controversial, but I think we don't want "everyone" editing
the map. I think we need some barriers to filter out people who are
"good" mappers. Good mappers have to understand this is not a service
for them, but a community. They have to understand this is not a drawn
map but a database. They have to appreciate the effort of others, and
so on.

I think "everyone" editing the map is the way to go. We just need to be prepared for vandalism if we get more popular - and Wikipedia clearly shows it's possible.

Yes .. everyone who wants to should have access to edit the map. The editing needs to be easy, fun and productive.. if it is not then most people will leave. The more complex and technical OSM becomes the less information will be entered and the more probable incorrect entries will be made. "Good mappers" contribute their time, knowledge .. usually at some cost to them, and want to see a result. OSM should accept that. If OSM bars common people for 'helping' then there will be a narrow focus and a reduction in data entered.

If you are not stubborn geek and you want to try to map many different kind of objects available locally, and are not interested in just one particular kind of them, you will loose.

No. It is OSM that looses the input from that person.

If OSM upsets people then some of them may well become vandals.
