Best Answer

In general, yes. The idea behind a wiki is that the general public can contribute and improve. Due to vandals and spammers, many wikis have had to institute rules that add complexity to the process, where some people might be restricted due to abuse, and others because they don't have enough contributions so that the system can decide whether they are trusted or not. The general idea of allowing people to contribute and improve is hopefully still respected though, balancing between the ideal of unlimited freedom and the reality of having to place protections in some areas.
