Semi-protection is more than this: an account must be old enough (don't remember the specifics, it is probably wiki-configurable) before you are allowed to modify a page that is semi-protected. This means that a vandal can not create an account and use it immediately to deface a face -- very handy, but we can re-protect the main page if needed when all the changes have been done. I know. I simplified it too much. Well, anyway, the site is semiprotected now, and so everything is fine. (BTW: As we are not Wikipedia and we need not follow any formalistic procedures, if we discover that somebody has registered an account and afterwards vandalised with it, we can block it infinitely at once and ask him to contact us by mail if he has a good reason why he should be unblocked. Point final.) By the way, the bullet is still there in my view (I can get a screenshot if it helps)... Uh. Damned. I didn't see it anymore. Anyway I'll have a look at it.

By the way, there is a spurious bullet in the left navigation menu, just under Recent changes; anything knows how to get rid of it ? Uh... I think I know where this comes from... A few not so successful attempts to alter the navbar by changing MediaWiki messages. In the english view it is okay again, I think I forgot to undo it in De-View. I'll try to remove it. Mhm, I think it was already away when I wrote this mail. Does anybody still see it?
