I've started getting one or two inquiries like this, each week, and I'm
wondering how to handle them.

1. Approve the post, so it's passed on to the mailing list?

2. Reject the post with the default explanation: 
   "Non-members are not allowed to post messages to this 
   list."

3. Refer the person to some sort of Reference Desk on the 
   Wikipedia website?
