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.
