Halo Sergio,
there are two kind of spam attacking the wiki
1. editing existing pages
2. creating new spam pages
for the first type I don't know how to monitor it unless I open the
pages one-by-one to check it.
the second type, I can see the new pages by clicking Special page called
New Pages.
but either of it, all user that used to create or edit the pages is
non-existing, they don't have profile.
If you expertise on MediaWiki and have time to check QMT Wiki page, I
think Jake can grant you a privileges.
I have ask these requirement to be implemented on Wiki but I don't know
will it suffice or not to minimize wikispam
============================
How about we turn on new account's email validation feature?
Please see:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/mediawiki/83969
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam#Restrict_editing
And restrict no anonymous editing/creating
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access#Restrict_anonymous_editing
# Anonymous users can't edit pages
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
# Anonymous users can't create pages
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;
These options are all implemented.
