On this subject, see my recent edit on talk:George W. Bush.

Although vandalism has been slashed by semi-protection on that
article, non-vandalism edits also seem to be down by about 60%.  Does
that mean that semi-protection is wrong for George W. Bush?  I think
the jury is still out, but it appears that there is considerable
collateral damage associated with semi-protection.
