I've noticed lately, that ever since Pikmin 3 was shown at E3, tons of IPs have been adding unwanted information. My guess is this'll eventually die off, but in the meantime, I suggest locking the wiki from all anonymous users. I know it sounds a bit harsh, but if we don't want these naive IPs to add/edit Pikmin 3 info, then we should probably lock the wiki. Thoughts? ~PikFan23

We discussed this on the IRC; we couldn't lock it at the time because Prez wasn't around. Still think it's a good idea, but if it can't be easily done (read: Prez can't easily come here to do that), I say leave it unlocked. Reverting is easy, and when a dumb anon sees their edit reverted, they'll soon realize that if you want to actually help, first let your IQ grow to at least 2 digits. — {EspyoT} 07:26, 11 June 2012 (EDT)
This is hardly a problem, really, it's just a few edits, comparatively. No reason to lock the whole thing. I actually wouldn't mind it much as all usable edits are from registered users, but it's still a matter of principles. I'll just check more often, starting now.--Prezintenden
