I really think PC could help us here greatly increase the number of anon/new edits. --Nathan2055^talk 16:26, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

This is wrong. This might be true on Sports & Entertainment, as I assume that it has a parity between vandalism and available voluntary work. But on BLPs, speed is needed and voluntary work is a rare thing. And on Science & Technology, you need voluntary work with an academic degree on Science & Technology. There are just a few to block the vandalism turning up, they are being overrun. These people want to use their own time to build up something. Counter-vandalism, edit-wars, dramas and filibusting are just unacceptable. Tyrannts always want democracy to overrule the fairness/ civility. --Chris.urs-o (talk) 07:45, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
