==IPs editing?==
For the longest time, the main page has said that this is a Metroid wiki that "anyone can edit." But everytime I've tried to edit as an IP, it says only users can edit. One of these two things should be changed. [[User:JamesHeart123|JamesHeart123]] ([[User talk:JamesHeart123|talk]]) 04:18, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

: IPs used to be able to edit but spambots can become unbearable. I liked it better when IPs could edit as well. I can't change whether or not IPs can edit but i can change the text, what should I change it to? Nothing comes to mind, maybe we can redirect it to the log in screen  {{:User:Malake256/sig}} 05:03, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

::Anyone still ''can'' edit. Anyone can make an account. It's free and easy, and saying "Anyone with an account can edit" sounds pretty bumbling to me. I know it would be better if IPs could still edit, but the spam is unbearable. Saying anyone can edit is not misleading. Sorry if I'm coming across a little bit unsympathetic, but how hard is it to make an account? =\ I think the redirect idea is great. {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 23:38, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
