Let me summarise the main arguments against the restriction:
1. It stops people from contributing [..] 2. Inconsistency [..] 3. Privacy issues [..]
4. It inteferes with people's freedom - who has the right to dictate what name a person (or, for that matter, a group of people) should be known as? 5. It encourages dishonesty: if you want to contribute but not reveal your real name, you have the option to lie about it, and can be fairly confident your lie will never be called. +1 for allowing nicks. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
