You're never going to be able to garuntee 100% the reports based soley on contributions by users. There are many people who only come and report once and awhile, as Eppidah is suggesting, which is a similar problem that was going on in Bones' HH Blog, and probably any other data that required users to report. As far as I'm concerned the only data you can trust 100% is your own data, and most likely many users that have been around here for awhile. I'm sure the pros and cons have been discussed by admins about letting new and unregistered users add data, but I feel there is a learning curve to reporting data accurately and also that very few people actually read the sections on how to contribute properly.

And yes, I think you're both arguing two different points. Multifusion results are great for compiling data quickly, and the odds are good that whoever are reporting these results know how to report them properly, therefore the concern of reporting favourable results doesn't apply in this case. However, for many single reports that is a very valid concern.

Just to be clear, I don't know how to do multifusions and only learned about their existance a week ago or so. But I also think wikiacon 58.186.47.99 does make a valid point as well, things that are not allowed to be discussed in detail openly should not be brought up on regularly used pages, it might be fine on message walls or somewhere where others don't generally visit.
