`Per-user edit limits on talk-pages == I am always trying to find technical ways to reduce behavioral problems. I am thinking that talk-pages should allow per-user edit limits, perhaps 300 edits per talk-page, for users identified with numerous edits on a page. Admins have used similar logic, as follows: if an article really needs 301 things discussed, then other users will most likely come to the talk-page to discuss many of those issues. There is no need for ``5`` users to flood a talk-page with more than 300 edits each. This feature could be made efficient if only users with counts close to 300 edits were checked (on each attempted edit to a talk-page), whereas thousands of other editors with just dozens of edits would not require checking. Suspected socks would also be restricted, and only a few would slip detection. I think obsessive behavior is linked to huge edit counts on a few articles. By using technical limits, then admins are less likely to be accused of favoritism: everyone approaching 300 edits would be checked, but only on some controversial articles. No reply needed. Thanks. -   == `
