The free-for-all policy of letting anonymous users of Wikipedia modify articles is creating a huge load of work for legitimate authors and editors. Only today I had to revert vandalism in 5 pages, in a single morning, some of them complete destruction of the article. Probably this discussion has already been done here, but I would propose that anonymous edits be banned by the WikiMedia software. In the future, identity verification should also be provided by legitimate authors. Making it slightly more difficult to vandals to alter articles will decrease dramatically the incidence. --R.Sabbatini 10:51, 24 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
