Hi Josh
QuestyCaptcha (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuestyCaptcha)
should enable you to add a captcha at the registration stage. The
extension allows you to define a question (e.g. write out the numbers 1
2 3 leaving no spaces) and associated answer (e.g. onetwothree).
I have found the catpcha very successful in preventing the automated
creation of user accounts.
Hope this is of help

Hi all,
Two questions here:
1. Anyone know of an extension that adds a captcha (or similar) to the
registration page? I've found plenty that work on edits, but none to
prevent the initial spam account creation.
2. Anyone know how to require email upon registration? I know there's
the confirm-to-edit configuration I could use which would make this happen,
but I feel like I should be able to require email at registering while
still leaving edits open to anonymous users.
Thanks. Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays!
-Josh
