Welcome

Now you have become one of us. I've lost count of how many times he has pulled this - were you included previously? You might want to comment there. There is no end to his energy - too bad it is only destructive. Tvoz |talk 19:53, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Stats and semi-protection

Hi HailFire, I found myself wikiwandering and found this discussion about the Barack Obama semi-protection on B's talk page. I just thought I'd mention that the stats on are hits per day, not per month. Right now, the Barack Obama article is #470, with 49,000 view per day, or 2000 per hour. 10 minutes of vandalism means hundreds of people see it, not just a handful.

I don't think it's too much to ask that editors of the highest-profile pages register before editing. It appears you're of the opinion that IP users with beneficial edits won't bother to register if the page is semi-protected. Do you know of any stats to back this up? I'm not saying this is yours to prove, I'm just curious if this is quantifiable in some fashion, even anecdotally. For what it's worth, I'm a regular editor on the Mitt Romney page, and finally requested semi-prot there after we had a couple of vandalisms that were up for 1-2 hours before being reverted (ouch!)
