This has also been my experience. http://techref.massmind.org doesn't require any registration to post new information. It checks for common spam words, and has a system that keeps the spam that does get posted from being seen by anyone other than the poster until I remove it, which I can do with a single click. Lots of people contribute now, but when I started I required registration and no one else used it.

Best wishes.
