Yes, it's the case that saving failed due to permissions set on purpose to prevent further spam. The current settings are that only a handful of whitelisted domains are allowed in wiki pages (luarocks.org, etc.) -- any other URLs fail. The problem is that some pages contained some "invalid" URLs in their text, such as the "mypackage.org" example in that particular page, and that caused the save to fail. I just added example.com to the whitelist so we can use it in examples and fixed the page.
