i agree, everyone should be welcome here, and submitting little more than an email address would really be the only pre-requisite. i understand that forcing account creation might disenfranchise potential editors, but i think the good outweighs the bad. i can't say with certainty that this is the case, but out of the thousand+ registered editors, those that remained inactive over the last month i beleive is largely due to the inactivity of the TES series itself, since the last new content release was about 4-5 months ago, and since then we have had plenty of fresh pages and edits to compensate the new releases. while i know an editors work is never done, the majority of the edits performed are usually like the example you provided, correction of spelling or adding links as much as possible.
