I understand why that is. There was wave vandalism at allthetropes at one point and the admins put up a heavily mod gate to keep out the vandals. At the time, it seemed like a good idea. The problem was the mods are busy with RL stuff to watch the site and there are too few of them to check. It's made worse by tropers adding in pages for non existent works. That pushed back the wait time from I think was few days to week to waiting three weeks is any changes any user made. Still, it made the mods seem overly paranoid about new users. I believe that lead to the wiki to have even less views than tropedia.
