I think I know why:

On a wiki I visit often (Six Guns wiki) the threads and forums and messages on message walls are basically crowded with tons of random comments and spam (Examples of spam: "..." and "Meh"). And some threads even have swear words (Examples: Sh*t, F**k, etc.) [That was an example, not literally swearing in actual comments] And even some users spam pages by putting random words or false information, and posting comments and replying to them (talking to themselves). Some blogs even have lots of cuss words and nonsense. And and a few weeks back, a wikia contributor came to the wiki and impersonated 2 users and insulted me 2 times and called me a b**ch. Then he got blocked and used a different IP address and escaped his block, and never visited the wiki again.

So on that wiki, we have to go to the trouble of blocking users, deleting useless pages, removing false information and replacing it with what it was originally, deleting/closing useless threads and messages, and deleting comments.
