Hey, just to explain that page is "semi-protected." It means that only "autoconfirmed" users can edit it. Yes that means IP editors can't, but it also screens out editors who have been a member less than (if I recall) 30 days. Hope this helps, and welcome aboard!--RosicrucianTalk 17:28, 8 May 2009 (EDT)

The elaborate a little on that... we have this thing about rumors and unconfirmed news and made-up stuff tc showing up in pages. We don't like it. We'd rather be accurate than first, and with something like this movie, the two don't meet too often. Anon IPs tend to like to throw the latest HE TELL ME onto pages, which is a lot of work to sort through and erase (plus they rarely have any regard for spoilers in the event of actual info), and the extra level or protection is so they don't just make an account to do the same thing. But there's lots of pages also in need of help, so enjoy! --M Sipher 17:44, 8 May 2009 (EDT)
