Some additional tips.
On my wiki, we use ConfirmEdit with Asirra (requires 5-10 edits to disable),
which I find to be one of the more effective captchas to frustrate spammers.
I also find it useful to check user all the user names that are obvious
gibberish and determine which ones come from
My wiki is in http://www.hanfumap.com/wiki/
After a recent update, I can't create image thumbnails. I can still upload
the image to the wiki, but the image can't be used in articles. It is not
displayed in the File page either.
e.g. http://www.hanfumap.com/wiki/File:Hfcw.jpg

Hi Tom,
I believe the ideal solution would be to set apc.stat to 0, and to call
apc_delete_file on LocalSettings.php after an update.
Thanks Kudu
I guess I could script that then call it with the command line after a file
Just wondering if there is a way to convert blocked users to inactive
users, or does that happen automatically. If it can be done or already
does occur, then in time the removeInactiveAccounts.php in /maintenance
will get them eventually.

Hi together,
I'm trying to use the MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle with Mediawiki 1.21.1
with Translate (Version MLEB 2013.09). All works fine but not the Translation
Services of Microsoft or Yandex. For Yandex I use following settings:

Hi Simon,
Thanks for the question.
Can you please try enabling translation services log with
$wgDebugLogGroups['translationservices'] = '/some/file';
See if any errors come up there.

Personally I've found QuestyCaptcha to be the most reliable. You show the
user an image and they have to guess the right answer. It can be configured
to have several correct answers and to randomly choose from a list of
several image/answers.
I have had zero spammer account creations since I
Whenever I try to delete multiple pages in MediaWiki on my localhost wiki, the
first page deleted (if I'm deleting more than one at a time) go well, but the
rest take a really long time before they are deleted.
