I agree that the instructions are too vague. I merely wanted to add some helpful info to the wiki on how to run Might and Magic II. For awhile, I thought the wiki was for the program DOS, not DOSBox. I did not know whether I would need to transform the letters in place, or concatenate the original word with a transformed word. I did not know whether case sensitivity was important or not.
I got through it, but I know you're creating too much of a barrier for various busy people to be helpful with wiki maintenance. Please provide more clues / verbiage as to the expected result. Why should any casual passer-by spend 20 minutes chasing all this stuff down? You say "well you got through it," but I did it in order to communicate my results here, so that others may be spared pain. I assure you others don't care that much and don't follow through.
Also, why is the wiki asking for a password for edits even when I'm logged in? That's excessive.
