[tuxdroid-user] Wiki spam

[neimad <ror...@gm...>]

Hello,

Several pages have been defaced/spammed in the last weeks. I have
reverted them but we need a countermeasure.

We could make it less easy to create an account by using some captcha:

    http://plone.org/products/plone-captchas
or  http://plone.org/products/plonecaptcha

Hi Damien,

The wiki is completely independent of plone right now, it's hosted on a  
different server running wikimedia. I guess there should be some addons  
for wikimedia too. I'll check.

The stupid fucks are at it again. I had to revert two pages. Btw, how
can I properly revert a newly created page? (I just wiped out the
contents of one of them, as I didn't see any way of doing otherwise).

I just delete the page so that it's marked uncreated like it was before.

I now added a couple of stuff to fight spam. Spammers are added to the  
black list, edits that contain tags that hide content are discarded and I  
added the ConfirmEdit extension which enables a very simple text Captcha  
when edits contain external links.

Hope that will keep those spambots out.
