Do you have some stats about the kind of contributions we get on the
wiki (authenticated, not-authenticated)?

If non-authenticated changes represent a decent part of the
contributions, then we should consider accepting anonymous changes
again and remove spam after the fact.


I would rather get spam and more contributions instead of neither of
them.


If however anonymous contributions represent a negligeable part of the
changes, there's no problem in requiring authentication.

As far as I'm concerned, I remember not contributing to wikis when a
15s change became 5 tedious minutes to create the account and store
the credentials somewhere :/
