User blog comment:BertH/Anonymous editing and your community/@comment-26914191-20150723033343

Unfortunately, I believe this is a good step. I am active on a lot of wikis, ok? Half of the edits I see from anons are vandalism, adding groundless theories or rumors or other bad things. Basically they are adding lies, useless info, or just untrue statements. Also, this is even bigger on wikis about mobile games and popular games, because of the hugely varying opinions!

I am active on the Pixelgun 3D wiki, and FNaF wiki. In the former, children who are angry about getting camped will add stuff like "this gun is the most powerful in the game, and is only used by idiots and noobs, and everyone who uses it should die." And in the latter, all comments other than blogs had to be disabled, as there were anons galor spamming, cursing, and raging.

So yes, this is a good step.
