Ok, then I'll continue posting anonymously for the time being (so I'll be
writing higher quality posts) and create a login at some suitable later
point (so that my post quality increases even further). Agreed?

Strangely, that is what I was going to do anyway, without being aware of
this fundamental scientific truth.

I wasn't saying anything to the contrary. I was just pointing out that it
*is* in fact open. Maybe I was subconsciously trying to encourage some quality
posts by non-registered members?

My brain is completely empty.

P.S.: A solitary thought just popped up: the wiki regrettably does not
      attribute pages to the author (or last editor). This would undoubtedly
      further encourage some quality posts by registered members.
