I found it’s worthwhile to make some contributions – after about 100 
edits you’ll be appointed a member and can access everything instantly. 
And contributing is really easy – it’s like correcting small errors, 
supplying bits of information on the pages, and then it quickly adds up 
to the required 100 (IIRC) edits.
And I’d like to add that this system has been introduced for good 
reasons: It has been necessary to give the whole project a better 
foundation, and that first means stabilising financial resources.

Best, Simon
