Sorry if I'm just butting in, but I've had trouble hopping in to adding new pages to wiki's for much the same reason: Templates. I can handle copy-paste-modify fine enough, but knowing which one is really the best model to use, especially when you don't have all the data to fill everything up, can be lousy. You don't want to start it if you won't finish it to a certain minimum... I've had a number of pages made for various things deleted just because they were basically stubs that didn't catch anyone's eye enough to help flesh out (and subsequently removed completely), kind of like what James said.

I also tend to misword or mix up certain things (I'm only human after all... it can be hard to remember every detail of hundreds of games/shows/books seperately) and the data simply gets wiped rather than fixed by moderators on several wiki's, which has been a major discouragement to try very often... Though I do add some useful stuff where I can.
