Fair enough, thought it wouldn't hurt unless #EditPageViews * $SizeOfImage got too large. I doubt Nokia's /particularly/ short on bandwidth, however ...
I would say that if somebody values their words so little that they would not create a login, then the rest of us should accept their valuation as well - and not allow them to access the system.
I disagree strongly. I made a fair few "tidy-up" additions to the maemo wiki before creating an account. These minor alterations were made in response to, for example, following a howto and noticing inaccuracies as I went along and are - IMHO - just the sort of low-barrier-to-entry modifications we should welcome from any passing good-willed user. I agree with the person who, earlier in this thread, said (paraphrasing) "when I find a wiki with an account creation *requirement*, I often walk on by." If they don't want my informal contribution in a *revision*controlled*, wiki environment where they can throw it away if it proves not to be useful then that's fine - they won't get it.
