Thanks for minding the wiki, Ryan.  I think it's tolerable to leave anonymous 
edits disabled indefinitely, as anyone can create an account to make edits.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib Wiki - anonymous edits disabled

Anonymous edits on the wiki are temporarily disabled. You should still be able 
to edit pages when logged in with a wiki account, which anyone can sign up for 
if you don't have one yet.

Spam has been bad the last 2 weeks, but today a new wave came with edits every 
few minutes, many of them extremely destructive.  Disabling anonymous editing 
seems to have stopped it for now.
