The Webware Wiki is currently in a very desolate state due to some
Chinese Wiki spammers.
Some users have tried to remove the spam manually, but that seems to be
even more difficult than Sysiphus' task.
I would help if some trusted users would be given the possibility to
delete the spammers' Wiki accounts, place their IP addresses on a
blacklist and rollback all changes made with these accounts.
As a starting point for the blacklist, we might use this:
http://openwiki.com/ow.asp?p=WikiSpammers&a=print&revision=140
Also, in the registration some sort of "captcha" might help that only
people with some Python knowledge can pass. Like:
Please type in the output of:
''.join(map(lambda x:chr(ord(x)^2),"lmqrco"))
