https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43575

            Bug ID: 43575
           Summary: Wiki paradigm is wrong.
           Product: WineHQ.org
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: www-unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
          Reporter: jokes_free4me(a)yahoo.com

The whole point of having a wiki is to allow users to "collaboratively modify
content". Ideally, even anonymous users would be able to do that, or at least
make suggestions using article talk pages... Currently, even after creating an
account, i cannot even create my own user page and/or talk page!

Basically, at the very least, "Autoconfirmed users" and/or "Users" should be
able to edit any and all talk pages.

Hopefully, able to edit other pages too, at least those that aren't protected.

It used to be that way; thank the human spammers who repeatedly vandalized  the
wiki for forcing the change.

You can request edit privileges by following the instructions on
https://wiki.winehq.org/WineHQ_Wiki:General_disclaimer.

Unfortunately, while captchas can keep out bots, this has proven to be the only
way to keep out human spammers. It is not going to change.
