Hmmm...never having done anything like adding a comment to a talk page...I did not expect it to actually require a traditional edit. Interesting!

Anyway, on the apparent typo..."Disclaimer: If anything I've said sounds harsh then I apologies apologize (or apologise?)."Scot Harkins (talk) 05:54, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Now then...the next question...and I do not know if this is known: I would want to know the percentage of anon edits that constitute vandalism. 1%, 5%, 25%, more? Then, for the valid edits, is there a way to weigh their relative value? The final formula would be in the form of a question: "Is the value derived from valid anonymous edits overridden by the damage caused by both invalid and intentionally misleading anonymous edits?" If so then anon edits are a net loss, and if not then anon edits are a net gain. There are two elements to the formula, one being the statistical answer (percentages) and the other being perceived value. Scot Harkins (talk) 06:07, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
