Clayton, I'd propose to turn off captchas on edits.
In my eyes, captchas on edits are contraproductive: They hamper "real"
contributions whereas they don't prevent (human) spammers from putting
links to external URL. They only prevent bots from putting links, but
bots shouldn't have passed the account creation barrier anyway.
So please switch it off.
Or is there a whitelist where one could put "good" URLs (like the CC-BY
or *.openoffice.org)?
The captcha/mailconfirm at account creation should be absolutely
sufficient.
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?
I get it, when the text contains the bug-template, that is {{bug|12345}}
for example, which generates the link to Issuezilla. And yes, that is
annoying.
kind regards
Regina
