- Description
A newly registered user cannot edit most of doc.tw.org
An anonymous user cannot edit doc.tw.org, even with CAPTCHAs.
There is no clear text on a page of doc.tw.org which tells a user why they cannot edit that page, or what they can do about it.
- Solution
- Collaborative documentation needs to be open. It is a good idea to include special "please obey the rules - no bug reports in documentation, etc." text in the edit page, but closing down the site to prevent such edits is cutting off ones nose to spite ones face. Even if there are restrictions on editing, the policy should be clearly visible at all times on the site, so that acquiring edit privileges is hassle-free and not some secret process. Since doc quality is a major driver of the health of the TW community, I am rating this bug an 8.
