Also, I think it's a little ridiculous to have this be a closed thing (I can't simply register to the wiki). Shouldn't the barrier to entry be _lowered_?
It is necessary to guard against spambots that auto-register themselves and then destroy the value of the wiki.

As currently stands, too little people can even edit the wiki know, those are humans! you know? :-D . Now in all seriousness, how do other wikis handle this issue? I know wikipedia filter blocks of IP & records who-did-who to see bad behaving actors, maybe this is too much for our case? what does for example the archwiki in this regard?
