It's not a Blender is still on the unclaimed page and I can't seem to find the edit button.

No way I could have been thorough enough to find it.

To people who aren't logged in at least. I noted that as well when I was claiming something. I ended up logging in, of course, but it was especially notable since the claimed badfic page is editable generally.

Its protection level is set so that new and unregistered users can't edit it. That way we don't get random people dropping a bunch of, say, Thomas the Tank Engine badfics on it, which no active PPCers want, so they sit there pointlessly cluttering up the page until they're all removed in the next cleanup. (Yes, true story.)
The Claimed list doesn't seem to have a problem with non-PPCers claiming things, hence the lack of protection.
That sort of thing is always up for discussion, if anyone thinks either situation is terrible.
(Being thorough is never bad advice, though.)

Thank you for telling me.
My point was that perhaps they hadn't logged on.

Your point still stands. -

Something should probably be done about the comment saying the list includes badfic that's been found by random people.
Also, thank you very much, Nesh, for you wonderful April Fool's idea...

(I kid. But seriously? I think that has to top doctorlit's Veggie Tales nemesis.)
