It's self-evident :0
Calling it the "encyclopedia which anyone can edit" implies the "intent" 
not goal as you stated, that we desire anyone to actually edit it.
Not just understand that they could and yet they won't and we don't 
actually want them to....

Apparently, the project wants the masses to edit it, or are you claiming 
that that's just a false slogan to make a marketing point?
