The potential for hundreds of collaborators, each making relatively minor additions and improvements,
to create something that would be impossible for any one person to build alone.

Alas, that potential is currently being squandered, because although the text on the page taunts me with promises of “easy editing”,
it doesn’t actually allow me to edit anything.

The wiki keeps insisting “You must confirm your e-mail address before editing pages.”

So how do I know you’re not harvesting my email address, selling it to the highest-bidder spammer?

I decide to trust you with yet another email address.

With both email addresses, the wiki insists that
“A confirmation code has already been e-mailed to you”,
but I never see it show up on my end.

I hope you can fix it before too many other well-intentioned people give up on trying to help you.
