And it definitely takes more thinking (and courage :) ) to integrate one's input with existing content nicely than just to drop one's 2 cents below. I am aware the Vim Wiki needs more quality than quantity right now but all new input can be potentially valuable. Anyway, the comments may be always integrated by editors with more experience later on.
Case for thought: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Grep%2C_diff%2C_patch%2C_idutils%2C_etc._for_Windows_systems I sincerely doubt the last contributor would add anything if the Comments section was missing.
