[Qgis-developer] RE. Wiki page/area for 'Building QGIS from scratch'

[John Hawkinson]

I'm new here, so I'll ask the obvious question:

Wikis are great because they lower the bar to collaboration. It's really
easy to make edits and you don't have to worry about them getting approved
and that's awesome. Really easy workflow, more so than github pull requests.
New and potential contributors don't get discouraged.

What's the reason for putting up barriers to documentation like this?

Problems with spam or low quality edits? Can I find a robust discussion
of the tradeoffs in the list archives?
