Wow. Previously nothing of this magnitude has been encountered. Luckily
this crap is, afaik, invisible to normal users, because the pages are
linked to from anywhere (except the TitleIndex).
Based on the history of the spam pages the spammer(s) used many user
accounts, and the edits were spread over a period of over 32 hours at
least. Assuming bots have not found a way around the Google reCAPTCHA we
use in the registration webapp these are real human spammers.
Anyways, I'll turn on a bunch of other spam filtering services in Trac
today, then add a few more on Monday. I'll also get rid of this crap
after more spam filtering is in place.
I hope we can avoid the situation where all edits have to be made by
known-good people. Right now Wiki edits are disabled for everyone except
a select few.
