At this moment there doesn't appear anything we can do.  I asked the
groups people about a way to allow members to edit the page, but require
a list manager to approve it.  Similar to what we do with new members,
their messages are moderated.  This feature may be available in the
future, but not soon.

I think for now the best way is to send edits for the page to one of the
group maintainers.
