Wiki Spam

Recommended Posts

The last couple of days, we've been hit hard with Wiki Spam. I've already spent 3-4 hours removing the vandalism. I installed a Captcha anti-spam program. (You know the ones that ask you to type in the letters in the picture?) Basically it shows up for anonymous folks who add links, or try to create new accounts. Hopefully this will deter much of the spam. Since the spam was created by fake accounts, I went through the user database and deleted any users I didn't recognize. So if you try to log in and it doesn't let you, don't feel bad. You can re-register with minimal hassle.

 

With that said, you don't even need an account to edit the wiki (unless you wanted to upload a picture). Anonymous users can edit any page by clicking the Edit tab and make any corrections.

 

Anyway, I just wanted to let y'all know the recent changes to the Wiki. And now back to your regularly scheduled program! :cool:
