Also, last I checked the wiki DEFINITELY wasn't a required part for someone to play Battlemaster.
On the game's home page, there is a link to basics.php, which links to the wiki. There is also a left-hand side link to the game manual, which is on the wiki. Reading all of the wiki is not required, but there are some things which you should know and are on the wiki.
I went ahead and added a link to the Rules and Policies page on the Manual.
