Right now, if you want to become an editor of Wikipedia, you simply need to have a passing familiarity with wikitext, and how the syntax of wikitext translates into the final presentation of the article.
However, if you want to become an editor of Abstract Wikipedia, you'd need to have an in-depth knowledge of lambda calculus, and possibly a Ph.D. in linguistics. Without a quantum leap in editing technology and accessibility for beginners, there's little hope for this to gain any traction.
