CentOS - Sep 2010 - does having a centos wiki acct grant edit access?

i just registered for a centos wiki account, and was wondering if
this gives me edit capability.  i'm prepping for the first of a number
of RHEL/centos basic admin courses and currently working my way thru
the wiki, collecting neat tricks and ideas and, occasionally, i'll
stumble over typoes -- some minor, some not so much.

  for instance, here:

http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/YumAndRPM#head-61731905d2e34ac343baeef06e5dd296aeed67b9

the command is listed as:

  yum --disable "*" --enable "rpmforge" list available

i'm guessing that should actually be:

  yum --disablerepo "*" --enablerepo "rpmforge" list
available

no?  but even if i got edit access, i'd still be happier if someone
eventually checked out any changes i made to validate them.  whatever
works best.

No, an account does not automatically give you edit rights, and you need 
to take this to the centos-docs list where a wiki editor will be happy 
to make the edits for you.

Obtaining wiki edit rights isn't hard - you just need to demonstrate 
that you wish to contribute.
