@FS Yes, because I'm a bit done with the anons. I see what you're saying. We can check all edits and mostly roll them back, but we can also choose to not do that and then we get less work. It's not that it annoys me very much, but it feels a bit useless to me. Again, I don't really mind it, but it isn't very goal oriented, but very devious. Haha ok. On which day I should have made this forum then? I think nobody had something to add to my story. Everyone's reason for supporting is the same: the constant stream of vandalism. With that argument about having a small community I strongly agree. I wasn't very strongly supporting this anyway, but now I'm opposing it because of that argument. I would never have thought that I would stand against anonymous contributors, but their edits make me a bit desperate sometimes. Still, for this community to welcome new users, it's vital that anonymous contributors get a chance on the Wiki. It's still good to discuss this though. I also made this forum because I knew that most people would be supporting this proposal, and it's good to have discussions about the Wiki's future, and to hear what everyone thinks. I would say we're not going to change or anonymous user policy. Well, I would test it out if there was an option to block anons from editing, but enable them to comment, but sadly there is no such thing. Now, let's see what SS says.

Thank you for your opinion everyone, this was what I wanted. I understand that you are done with them, but disabling them all goes a bit too far. As I said, it will indeed be less work but it never really bothered me, undoing bad edits. I just wanted to say with that, that this wasn't something I thought we would get a disccusion for, but it's good that we have one now. Yes and that's actually the only reason. That doesn't proves me and since there aren't other reasons, I oppose. Okay, I'm glad to hear that :) Yes it's good to hear this from more people. It's also that most users don't really care of anonymous users are there or not. Yes, we already tested it out, before it wasn't that succesful in my opinion. That function would indeed be very handy, testing that would have been something we should have do, but as you said, it isn't there.
