A reminder of Wiki security to the creator of Chibi-Robo Wiki:

A guest should NOT be able to edit the homepage of a wiki at all! If this anti-vandalism precaution is NOT taken, then any mischievous misfit can put anything on the Wiki and get it to a lot of people, possibly expanding this to other pages, wikis and possibly even the entire Wikia site! This can range from pornography (meagre) to a very heavy wall of text that clogs up space and possibly cause Wikia's servers to crash (the worst thing to happen to a site, ever).This piece of advice isn't used by rather small wiki's and they suffer for it. If you check the history of a page on the Dead Block wiki, you'll notice that it got wiped clean at 18:37-19:05, January 2, 2013 (in the UK (?) ). That was from me, and I decided to do it for teaching them a thing or two about security, having fun and messing up the Wiki pretty badly. Think about what I could've done if I had an army of Wiki removing bot's that can corrupt every page on a Wiki to the point of destroying it in a snap of my fingers? Think about that.
