Wiki making should not be of any concern for two big reasons:

1 - It's "code" is designed to be very natural.  It's not like making
a webpage where a paragraph break is some special set of characters.
You can just type in what you want and it comes out reasonably close.

2 - Other people will tweak it.

Combining those two means that if you have content you can easily put
it up (really, it's easy, I swear.  If you can write email, you can
edit a wiki) and then someone else can come through and add the gizmos
and widgets.  In the end, you have a product that neither one of you
could have made alone.

So get get an account and just write!  Others will "wikify" it for you later.
