` ::::Sure it is. Keeps vandalism out, keeps legitimete editors in. And, no, I don't think of anons or new users as ``second -class citizens`` ethier. In fact, I hold them in high respect, as i can't count how many times an anon or new user has cleaned up a spelling mistake or grammer error after I've finished making a new article. But this article is indeed an exception, and we must react acordingly. I'm a good - faith editor, but I'm no sucker. These vindidctive users play us up but good. They don't care if we let down SEMI in an act of kindness and good faith, they just start anew. Even Mr. Sidaway stated that vandalism skyrocketed when he deactivated SEMI and numerous charts have shown (again by Mr. Sidaway) that SEMI is benefitting the article. And a user has already shown what ``incredibly constructive`` edits are made when its down (the addition of a coma! That's a Major edit for sure!). Honestly, the statistics and our tireless hours of pointless vandlaism reverting don't lie. We could go on and on, but what's the point..? Vandalism will not desist. The only reason vandalism decreses is because of SEMI. I leave you with the history, and I hope you'll think on it. But I doubt it. - `
