The thing is that we need to get more intelligent comments such as discussions about the game and provided hypothesis about how x(sources such as a new trailer or a new Famitsu) could relate to y (content of the game in discussion.)We just need that type of community. One that actually knows what it's talking about most of the time. Since Tri that has been much more of an issue since I remember when I first came on to the wiki (May 2010 I think) the majority of the people on the wiki knew what they were talking about, and they quickly got the uninformed informed of the Monster Hunter community know-how. However, since Tri has come out a new type of user has become more prevalent, the "I only have and heard of one game so this is the only game in the series" user. They tend to not care about other games and don't know crap about any of the others and don't care to listen to members who've been around longer. If this means to ban anon comments than I'd like that (I think Artemis would too.)Also the stuff that is easily able to be edited has gone down drastically. Most of the stuff currently on the checklist refers to games not out internationally which means few people have a first hand experience and just don't know as much about the game. Only the importers have the knowledge which tend to be the super hardcore fans that want all of them, and they're the ones already editing.Also, the simplicity of edits has basically disappeared with only the time-consuming, hard data edits left in place. Which very few non-hyperdedicated fans have the time or the technical expertise to do.It's simply an unskilled and uniformed majority leaving the minority to work on the wiki part of the wiki.
