* Special:Version reports that you're using a truly ancient version of MediaWiki. It's fast and painless to update. o Back everything up (the database and files) o delete the maintainance directory. o Uncompress the latest version, overwriting the existing files. o Edit AdminSettings.php (see AdminSettings.sample for info) to add the database info. o cd maintainance;php update.php * enable $wgSpamRegex o Mine bans all div tags: $wgSpamRegex="/<div/i"; o You might like: $wgSpamRegex="/overflow\s*:\s*auto/i"; * Install Bad Behavior my notes (http://jrandomhacker.info/Bad_Behavior) .. it's VERY easy to install. * Install http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SpamBlacklist_extension .. it's a bit annoying but it's worth it. At this point you could probably safely allow anonymous editing again. * Update MediaWiki:Sidebar o See mine (http://jrandomhacker.info/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar) for info. I have all kinds of notes on http://jrandomhacker.info/MediaWiki especially MediaWiki security (http://jrandomhacker.info/MediaWiki_security) and MediaWiki tricks and tips (http://jrandomhacker.info/MediaWiki_tricks_and_tips). .. Benefits of updating: * Security security security! * Speed improvements: * Administrator improvements. It's a lot easier to administer ex.: change the sidebar, change the css, change the javascripts all within the wiki. Better banning, reversions, etc. * Better recent changes (like not displaying your own edits) * Email features -- get notified of changes via email. * and lots more..
