Beware that pages you mark there will be *deleted*. In case a valid page was spammed afterwards, changes will not be reverted back, but the whole page is deleted. Ok, then I can delete the whole work of Uroveits who has more contributions than I, to get in front of him? Or everybody can delete the work of floeff? It's a joke but with a serious background. (I will hopely never delete the work). Shouldn't we fix it with permissions? -- Grüße k-j -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-website] deleting wiki spam
Hello, with the new wiki, we have some more options for fighting wiki spam that I'd like to share with you. As usual, on http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Special:RecentChanges we see a nice list of recent activities, unfortunately also with a nice list of recent spams. Most of the time, it is one user spamming. In order to delete all pages created by that user, you can use the extension available at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Special:Nuke - simply enter the user's name, and a list of all his pages are shown. Beware that pages you mark there will be *deleted*. In case a valid page was spammed afterwards, changes will not be reverted back, but the whole page is deleted. If we want to get rid of the registered users, another extension comes in handy, which is http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Special:UserMerge Using this extension, you can merge the spamming user to anonymous, effectively deleting them out of the database. Hope that helps a bit in combating spam!
