Board Thread:Administrative Requests/@comment-25405817-20150928170243

Around a week ago, I found a rather... inneducated edition in the Winter Schnee page, particularly in the bit of trivia explaining the relevance of her name according to the naming conventions set up by Monty. His/her exact contribution was the following:


 * Winter's name is also a season, called winter like holy shit.

This was promptly removed by wikia administrator, Maki Kuronami. When everything is said and done, there was no harm done, other than a mild annoyance. But this brings the question: Why is the wiki letting this acts of vandalism happen? Why are we letting people with no other hobby than trolling and making people who spend so much time working in this wiki as throughly as possible lose the product of their labor?

Sure, this can be fixed immediately with one click, and the person responsible of the unecessary edit will be given a slap in the wrist. But the same doesn't happens to the so called "Wikia Contributors," Anonymous users that don't own an account on Wikia, and thus can't be properly contacted to adress their offense. Ergo, they get away untouched, empowering this kind of behavior.

I adressed this issue with Maki before, but now I'm propperly requesting Locking Up the Edit Feature of All the Pages in this wiki, away from any "Anonymous" user. This would prevent any other act of vandalism to remain unpunished.

I'm not suggesting locking away the "comment section" too, since it doesn't affect the content of the pages themselves.

Thanks everyone for your support.
