That approach certainly works, but given how difficult the average user (especially the average user on shared hosting) finds the process, I'm not sure how practical it would end up being. But document it and prove me wrong. :-) It could also be possible to replace the Python script with something written entirely in PHP, using GD or whatever. Maybe. But if it turns out that bots are getting through it just as easily as reCAPTCHA, then there's not much point. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
