MOST pages can be edited by anyone, without even logging in. Although it is a good idea to make an account for yourself as there is some editing that only registered members can do. For instance the owner of a page can lock it from anonymous editing. When this happens there will not be an option to edit unless you are logged in. There are some pages that are only editable by admins, like the front page.
How to start editing: click edit at the top of a page to edit the entire page, or click on the edit link on the right of a section header to edit that section. Make the changes you want and hit preview to see how it looks, or save changes if you are sure you are done. The spam controls will ask you a general knowledge question about Amtgard. They SHOULD all be answerable by looking in the rulebook. Make sure the changes went through. And enjoy the newly updated page.
A cheat sheet for editing a wiki:

the wiki forum on esam.
