I find the concept of having both pseudonymous and anonymous traffic
through TOR quite interesting. In some cases, you really do wish to just

Just a thought.
Wikipedia entries from anonymous sources, such as Tor, should have an

No, this is important. If this isn't Cypherpunks material these days then

Oh...-that's- your point:
No, Wikipedia needs to realize that the IP address correlation they enjoy
outside of Tor is a happy accident, and that they should stop treating IP
addressess as user credentials. If they want credentials, they need to
implement them.
Well, is it reasonable to expect
