            Bug ID: 59835
           Summary: Flow: adding external links should trigger CAPTCHA
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Flow
          Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
          Reporter: sp...@wikimedia.org

$wgCaptchaTriggers['addurl'] defaults to true, so that if a user (new?
not-confirmed?) adds an external link to a wiki page, he or she is prompted
with a CAPTCHA:

  Your edit includes new external links. To protect the wiki against automated
edit spam, we kindly ask you to answer the question that appears below (more
info):

But this doesn't happen for Flow posts or header edits, and it probably should.
This may be a contributing factor to our recent spam attack.
