I've been hosting a (very low traffic) PmWiki ( http://semitwist.com/goldwiki ). I used to have constant linkspam problems, even after I enabled the feature where it automatically syncs its IP blacklist with major maintained blacklists. But then (in addition to the auto-blacklistings) I followed the suggestion in PmWiki's docs of requiring a password, but just simply *stating* the password right there in the page: http://www.semitwist.com/goldwiki/Main/TestPage?action=edit It's been working *amazingly* well.
