--- Comment #4 from Ariel T. Glenn <[email protected]> ---
I'm doing best guess from a quick glance at the logs but it looks to me like
there are three active admins, maybe only two on a daily basis, and in the last
two weeks 10 articles were deleted from the main namespace that had been
created by anonymous users.

If this is right, I'd much rather work with the local community to figure out
how we can make cleanup of junk pages less painful than turn off page creation
for anons.

As far as page talk creation, or disabling anon edits completely, we can't go
there.  Like many hundreds of thousands of other users on these projects, I got
my start by an anonymous edit, and that is in huge part what makes these
projects successful.  Welcoming anonymous contributions is a core Wikimedia
principle that would take major discussion at community, board and foundation
levels to walk away from.
