No, really. This would prevent potential contributors from getting involved. Actually I myself hadn't any account yet on the xmlgraphics part of the wiki before removing that spam. :-\ > or > have at least some form of approval before allowing write access? That's a better solution. My feeling is that we should consider doing this only if we become overwhelmed with spam. Currently this is rare enough to not reduce flexibility for real contributors. What would be great is if we could remove the notifications of such changes from the mail archives. For the initial notification this sounds difficult to me, but we as committers could prevent our fixes from also being mailed. This would at least reduce the number of references to the links. If that's worth the trouble, of course... A good thing however is that notifications are sent even for trivial changes. Otherwise we would have probably never noticed that spam, or much later. I guess the spammer was counting on the fact that trivial changes wouldn't be notified.
