Project idea
[edit]What is the problem you're trying to solve?
[edit]Harassment
What is your solution?
[edit]All participants should register via an e-mail address so that, if a block or ban is imposed on a person who is guilty of harassment, abuse, disruption, etc., it is the e-mail address that is blocked and not merely an IP address. Okay, the miscreant might have other e-mail addresses but how many would he be willing to create before he gives up?

[edit]- The most of the website use registration with email to limit fake registrations. Even better would be registration with e-mail and phone number.
The advantages: only interested people register and knowing to be a person and not only a nickname can avoid excessive reactions and bad behavior. Angelo Mascaro (talk) 14:06, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
