I don't go to the wiki to contribute. I go to the wiki to find out how
to do things. I think the issue is that how to do that is lost on the
front page. Plus a person who wants to contribute can't just go to the
wiki to do so. They will have to a) make a FAS account, b) sign the
CLA, c) get approved, d) add a group, then they can contribute.

How can we better communicate all that?
