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 [[SW:YAV|YAV]] are amusing. --<span style="font-family:vivaldi; font-size:12pt">[[User:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4">Shadow</span>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4;">crest</span>]]</span> 22:58, 6 January 2009 (UTC) | 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.
