<p>I think anonymous comments should have to be treated the same as anonymous wiki edits. Editor known by IP adress so spammers have less obscurity and can be addressed by their actions.<br>
So a comment should not come from "Anonymous", but from IP 1.2.3.4 (Anonymous)" or so.<br>
We are all anonymous to some degree and having a name does not mean that you're that person, but this way you can attribute different comments to the same person. And I think that is a valuable tool.</p>
