OurMedia.org may serve as a nice home for the video for an ASL-English wikipedia. It seems to have no restrictions on video size. Wikipedia can house the English text and link to the video file at OurMedia. Also for the wiki in wikipedia. Consider a video file the same as an image file in wikipedia.In Wikipedia, an image file cannot be edited other than by replacement. A video could be "edited via replacement" the same way. Words and sentences in Wikipedia are also done this way. If I change "lion" to "king of the beasts" I have essentially edited via replacement.
Then what you're proposing really isn't a wiki. Ease of editing is what makes a wiki a wiki, and your "editing by replacement" that requires any edits to require rerecording the entire signed video is not "easy" by any stretch of the imagination.
On top of that, I'm still not clear on how a person with at most a 4th grade reading level is going to use the website.
