I recommend the ConfirmEdit plugin (which is also listed on the above page) using only the 'addurl' and 'createaccount' triggers. This requires the user to fill out a captha when adding new links to a page or when creating a new account, while editing of regular content is not affected. On a mediawiki page I administer this plugin was able to keep out the >200 spam edits which were performed every day.
