True. But i'm not willing to copy-and-paste someone's content to 
the Wiki without their permission. And trying to put it in my own 
words is very likely to introduce inaccuracies, given my 
inadequate knowledge in this area (as demonstrated by this 
thread).

i would suggest that the people who should be editing the Wiki are 
those who have good knowledge of the subject area they're editing, 
not those of us still coming to grips with that subject area.
