Other wikis I've worked on require users to register an account such as [http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Main_Page]. I do not believe that anonymous editing in general is helpful to the overall upkeep of the wiki. The obvious issue of vandalism aside it makes helping new editors much more difficult when theyre switching IPs, and while it can be frustrating for registered users to have to remember to log in all the time encouraging them to do so is a good thing. | Other wikis I've worked on require users to register an account such as [http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Main_Page].

Most of them however are making mistakes like forgetting spaces after punctuation or more problematically wiki-linking and then creating (and often recreating) unnecessary articles and inserting unverified information. I don't mind cleaning up after them but it would make things easier if their talk page wasn't constantly switching between IPs and I could leave them some advice and links to help articles on their talk page. | ||

Now that i'v heard about this I wan't to say that I'm a anonymous user but at least i'm a good one I'm here to say that I believe we should do a sub block thing like the mariowiki because I'm doing my rounds surfing through all 496 main pages and i'v seen that a few of them are geting vandilized I think you should do something.

Whats a sub block Yoshi? Is that where you block anonymous editors from editing an individual page? [[User:Discordance|Discordance]] 14:46, 11 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
