Looks like they've shut down the ability to use the invites - the exceeded capacity message is up. Hopefully they open back up again soon.

If anyone has one available, I'd love an invite for winters.jason@gmail.com

The fact that some people that know know a great deal about ferries know how to use a wiki does not imply that all people who know a great deal about ferries should know how to use a wiki. One counterexample does not a rule make...

Wikipedia was, as you say, "to be accessible to a variety of different people". It was not designed "to be accessible to every user or type of user on the planet". I'm certain of this fact since the very thought of explaining to my mother that equal signs surrounding text denotes a section heading (or that section headings exist for that matter) is so scary that it makes my head hurt.
