I don't think it's as simple as that. We're a small wiki, and much of the DC userbase has no idea how to edit or work on a wiki. Forcing them to have an account puts a lot of people off in this sense (this coming from conversations I've had with other members and even spriters). Because of this, anon editing actually makes up a decent bulk of our activity, almost half of it in fact. Keeping it open will also encourage people to take little steps towards getting their own account and becoming a regular editor, which is something to consider as well.

And actually, grammar issues have been sitting around on articles for years now- finding this out now as I clean up the dragon articles :P The only reason I brought this up as an issue is because this week, the number of vandalism edits was higher than the number of constructive edits on part of anon editors, as opposed to being the other way around which is what you would normally expect. I don't know if it will continue like that (it's calmed down now these past several days), but I didn't not want to say anything in case it does get worse down the track.
