I'm ok with a captcha, too. It's probably the case that they're being attacked by censorious agents, but it may also be the case that this is a reaction to a genuine increase in archival demand.

I wouldn't be too surprised considering how popular it's getting to edit older articles, definitions, and wiki pages because they are 'inconvenient', and remove comments/posts on social media for wrongthink. Internet archival is a need that is increasingly hard to satisfy, at least the way it's done now.
