| - | The spam in the wiki, which I have been browsing through lately, is so annoying that I have decided to use some of my time to revert the affected articles that I come across. | ||

| - | I did this as well in June. Its hopeless. There are a couple of options: | ||
| - | Make editing harder (any kind of captcha while logging in) - easy to override. | ||
| - | Lock and forbid editing after cleaning up - not nice. | ||
| - | Alert admin on oesf forums. (I will do this). | ||
| - | Make a mirror of this knowledge and abandon this junk.... :( | ||

| - | At the moment I'm going through the Recent Changes page as I used to. This time I'm looking for Red user names and looking at the page history and the version attached to the name. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If it is the spambot stuff I select: | ||
| - | Block, other, 1 year ban, other and put spambot in the other box. Then select block. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Obviously when I find a spammed page I can take a look at the RED user revisions and block as required. | ||
| - | |||
| - | I'm hoping this new wiki software can really block the same IP. (It seems to!) | ||

| - | : I'm going through allpages looking for dubious titles. If there is no content I start the deletion process. If there is a message content which resembles the classic wiki spam method I delete the page. I may find some links between these pages, which prevent deleting them all. I'll sort that out later.
