Indeed, anyone can edit Wikipedia - although there is a "notability" criterion (bar) that has to be passed (as potentially reviewed/discussed by others) before a page on a new subject can be put up, and stay up - I have had the odd one questioned, though in those (2) cases - of 65+ - managed to put up a convincing enough case that they were retained.

Editing pre-existing pages, image files, etc. is a lot easier, but there is still a learning curve, and you have to have a certain sort of particular mind and sometimes patience to deal with the required syntax etc., which can be quite exacting. Also deciding what it is you actually want to say (or avoid saying) and how to phrase it, takes a while, and various iterations, in some cases!

Cheers - Tony
