Can someone please explain to me why admins feel the need to protect their archives or their talks, despite the fact that various non-admins have archives and nearly all moves of talkpages not by their owners would be vandalism?

:Move vandals have an unpleasant tendency to target admins' user pages/talk pages, and some have had archives vandalised. It's not intended to counteract YAV in any way.

Admins and protecting talks
Can someone please explain to me why admins feel the need to protect their archives or their talks, despite the fact that various non-admins have archives and nearly all moves of talkpages not by their owners would be vandalism? Unless you wish to protect everyone's archives, the parallel between such actions and YAV are amusing. --Shadowcrest 22:58, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
