Instead disabling anonymous login to edit.php.net I suggest: 1. A configuration, per language, to disable all editing and patch submitting. If the user tries to edit a file, a message should offer to redirect the user do the respective page in GitHub; 2. A configuration, per language, to disable anonymous editing and patch submitting. If the user tries to edit a file, a message should offer to redirect the user do the respective page in GitHub; 2. A date field, per edit/patch and editor, where the editor clicks "Need comment" and that field is filled, and then a way to list by date and mass delete these edits. The first case covers the pt_BR situation, where nobody uses edit.php.net, the second case covers anonymous edits on the languages where is a general problem, ant third case covers the organization problem of one editor.
