(This is a repeat of my post here, for visibility on what I believe is becoming the main area of feedback on the issue for mods/admins. If you’ve already read that one, this is the same)

My main issue with the wiki-post solution is the whole “editable by anyone” aspect. If they wanted, someone could right now just essentially nuke most of the howto section, and it’d likely be a lot of work to get it back the way it was. Now take that, and expand it across all the Scripts/Script Collections/other posts. All it would take is one person with a grudge to effectively wipe out the entire site, assuming everyone makes their posts into wiki-posts to preserve the ability to edit them in the future. Sure, nobody’s had a reason to do this yet. But I’d like to not give them the opportunity, if possible.
If there were a way to make it so certain wiki-posts were only editable by specific people (plus mods/admins probably), I’d be more on board with it. And maybe that’s possible? I don’t know. But right now it feels like we’re about to just take out our front door entirely and just assume nobody will try to rob us because it hasn’t happened before.
