I think we need a better way to register wiki accounts. There is nothing
stopping a spambot from sending an email to Apertium-stuff with a username
and getting a wiki account (because we would think it was a person).
Obviously, we would catch this if it happened rapidly, but in the lead up
to GSoC, doing it once a day or so with different (possibly spoofed)
addresses wouldn't look suspicious, and even after we knew about the
attack, how would we know which future messages were bots?
