The spam and junk pages on the wiki are a broken window in the Rails neighbourhood. Please fix it - I'd rather be contributing value than rolling back spam.

I agree that the wiki needs something to happen to make it stand up to the massive amount of spam it gets. I wonder if we should look at what Jim Weirich is working on for the rubygarden wiki? He has written a new wiki engine for it called ruse with a major focus on keeping it spam free. Details here:

        Thoughts?
