Captchas on edits? There should only be a Captcha on new user registration. It is possible to enable Captchas on edits, but it are not be enabled (I just double checked). The settings for the reCaptcha extension are set so it is triggered on: - new user registration - anonymous edits (but we don't allow anonymous edits, so this never triggers) - guessing a password incorrectly too many times in a row - register users are never presented with a Captcha - adding a URL to an external website Where exactly are you seeing the Captchas show up?
