It is my understanding that this was the consensus, so I have disabled the "minor edit" checkbox for anonymous users. The reasoning here is that an anon can never gain the trust necessary to have his edits ignored by some users.
This is not good. Please change it back until this can be better discussed.
It *was* that way (no minor edits for anons) some time ago, then it was changed back for some reason (maybe for no reason...).
Just leave it as "no minor edits for anons", until there's good reason to change it again.
I think there shouldn't be any "minor edits" flag at all; we have the ability to have the software determine if an edit is "minor"; why not let the software flag a change as minor in the html if only a few bytes have changed? We already do something similar for the links on article pages, where we classify the links according to their size.
