#'''Strong support (template)''': I was also originally in support of protecting the pages, but I like SK's idea of putting the changelists to templates that are auto protected (though, tbh, I think established protection would be better but auto confirmed is better than nothing). I don't have much else to add that Draco hasn't already said other than I have personally seen the effect of allowing IPs to tamper with vital information as the wiki is frequently scoffed amongst competitive circles due to frequent false information be added, which only  makes people lose a lot of trust in us as a reliable source of information. Data that is objective (i.e. information with zero room for debate and not up for debate, such as data that is pulled directly from the game that can be easily proof checked) should be protected from overzealous, opinionated people for the sake of our integrity if we want to be a reliable source of information for the competitive scene.

#'''Support for entire page''' The main character pages are too readily visible for the risk of IPs/new users messing around to be worthwhile. The technical pages are way too detailed for most people to adequately ensure the quality of, and those people are virtually guaranteed to be at least autoconfirmed, if not established.

#'''Support, but for the template'''. It'd be much easier to control (for lack of a better word) the information specifically regarding a character's attributes and technical data if it was put aside as a linked template, and ''that'' were protected. That way, only the specific section of information can be taken care of, and we don't have to worry about any complete and utter shutdown of editing. I was never in on the idea of outright forbidding IPs from editing, but I also think that something has to be done.
