On cppreference I was able to create an account, and made minor updates that appear to have been accepted without comment. 
How is the cryptopp wiki documentation maintained?  I didn't find a place to create an account, but did find the login screen.
It is true that I am not familiar enough with the library to know what is correct or not.  I have reported an apparent typo as a github issue.

We had a spammer get into the wiki. He/she/it created about 15,000
fake accounts and spammed a bunch of articles. We think the challenge
CAPTCHA failed. We disabled new account creation after that. We have
to do it manually.

Email me at noloader,gmail account. Provide the username name you want
to use and the email address you want to use.

(I'll look into getting a better message about it on the wiki. When
you click login, you should get a message telling you what to do).
