Generally the best way to get started with serious wiki editing is to
create an account on the wiki itself, make sure you have Edit permission
(so you can add/change content)... and then just start. Start anywhere
you want, and branch out from there.

With wiki editing, it's often a good idea to do a brain dump or initial
notes first, and then go back to fix/revise/update/adjust the content
until you are happy with it.

Some people want everything to be perfect from their first edit. Don't
do that. Just get the info on there however you want, then beat it
into shape as needed.

Damien's email, right after yours, gives some good advice too.

Does that help enough to get you started? :)
