Follow De's lead and retire the text that says 'anyone can edit' in favor of 'Good writers always welcome'?
OH YES PLEASE.
Please not. See the earlier thread: http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2006-June/049731.html
I didn't throw it out as a really serious suggestion, but I don't agree with your argument.
You proceed to argue that "anyone can edit" is a bad slogan. But I have never argued that it is not; I simply think that "good authors are always welcome" is considerably worse. I've made this point in the thread referenced above, here:

Is there a page on the wiki yet to collect slogan ideas?
