Would you be interested in uploading books to ProleWiki if we opened library editing without an account?

Just gauging interest for now. It's a question we've thrown around internally before but never settled.

As a reminder 'anons' (people without an account) can edit wiki pages like on wikipedia, but they go into a moderation queue that the stewardship checks and approves/rejects accordingly. They don't instantly appear.

On the one hand, more books.

On the other hand, there is a small process to it (adding the infobox and proper categorization) and the big part imo is we have to trust that people will upload the book exactly as it is in the source, which I'm not sure we can even do (and therefore won't do). It's easy to add a vandalizing sentence in the middle of a chapter.

So would you be interested in uploading books to PW if it was available?
