Hi Felix, sorry, that I didn't have much time for looking after the wiki lately. Many thanks to you for keeping an eye on this and cleaning up all the spam!

I have know set the default permissions to "read" for anonymous users and "read,write" for known users (i.e. authenticated ones). Unfortunately, MoinMoin does not have a separate permission for page creation, i.e. this means that you know need to be logged in to edit any page. Also, because by default known user do not have the revert right, they do not seem to able to recreate pages with names that once existed but were deleted earlier. Let's see how this works out in practice. There might be still spam bots who will cretae accounts to publish their crap. > I don't know if I can keep up with the spam bots for so much longer. Again, many thanks for your help fighting spam so far. I know how annoying but still very important this is!
