Ok so some percentage of people that you sit in front of a wiki don't realize it's edited by "nonprofessional" people, people like them. And let's assume for the sake of argument that some % of these people, after the proposed changes, will now be able to make that jump. I'm curious, how many of them would then actually go on to make an edit? I'm scared we're jumping through hoops and degrading everyone's experience to capture a truly minuscule number of new edits.
