the welcome mat is clearly aiming at organizations, and „contributing“ on this page seems to suggest importing data, at least that’s the main focus as I see it.

The fix the map link is better suited, and has links to community resources like the wiki and the beginner‘s guide.

Regarding the potential problem of someone vandalizing the howto wiki page: while it is definitely possible as with any wikipage, the solution would be detecting and reverting it quickly. Editing the page could (?) be restricted to autoconfirmed users maybe?
