(Which is not unreasonable at all), we should have a protected template
that makes that clear. After all, the first page people hit is also a
place where they are going to want to try to edit - it's important to
take those people and invite them to look at other pages. I've created
[[Template:P-protected]] for this.
2: I understand the need to remove the Siegenthaler libel from the page
history. On the other hand, I think A) It is a matter of important
historical record at this point, and B) It sets an unseemly precedent.
Can we move the deleted history out of that article and into an archive
page, perhaps with a permanant front page that notes what it is, and
that it is a collection of vandalism?
I would disagree. If we archive libellous statements, we are open to
libel suits.
