I will certainly volunteer, at least in an interim capacity. (I'm willing to be a permanent administrator, but I'm not sure I'm the best person for the job -- but something needs to be done soon, and I'll be happy to step in and get things started). -- Eric On Wed, Nov 24, 2010 at 2:08 AM, Joha

Pretty much any Wiki can be modified to use captchas and, of course, more importantly, to not use the default param names. Other tricks like adding in false submits in hidden divs (so users don't see them), etc, that submit to honeypots that then block the source are also very feasible. One of the

Hello, I also tried to contact the wiki administrator, same result here. My feeling is that it would be best to look for a new wiki location and then to transfer the existing content (with some comments to not lose the authorship information from the old wiki) there. Then the wiki could be contro
