User blog comment:WarBlade/Restricting Page Creation on Borderlands Wiki/@comment-2005959-20121228225720

While I am in the habit of checking every edit done by "A wikia contributor" I mostly find just the above, a simple semantics or typo fix. I have also, on occasion, noted on other wikis a discrepancy, typographical or grammatical error, or the like, and attempted to fix it only to run into the "unregistered wall." Most times I'd simply shrug my shoulders and click away. I believe that putting up the same "wall" would discourage casual editors from helping out in the same manner that I (hardly a casual editor) have been as well.

There have also been a few notable times in this wiki's history, most notably during the doldrums in between BL1 and 2, that UCs were the most reliable contributors to the wiki, even going so far as to merit UotM status on a few occasions.

Restricting editing rights to registered users only is something that I cannot condone.

Restricting the rights of UCs to create pages, however, I fully support.
