<p>about spammers</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>=== Wiki spammers ===<br /> <br /> Hi, after a quick look through the user list on this wiki, I see a lot of entries that look like typical spambots, f.i.:<br /> <br /> # [[User:Liuhecai001]], [[User:Liuhecai002]] etc.<br /> # [[User:Bgb818]], [[User:Bgb88]] etc.<br /> # [[User:Www.ab666.cn]]<br /> <br /> In fact, almost half of the users look like spam accounts, probably registered in advance to spam later. <br /> <br /> I think it would be a good idea to:<br /> <br /> * block/delete these user accounts<br /> * upgrade the wiki software to the latest version<br /> * install some Spamblock/Captcha/ConfirmEdit extensions<br /> <br /> Here is a (probably incomplete list):<br /> <br /> * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit<br /> * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AntiSpoof<br /> * http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Newuserlog<br /> * http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SpamBlacklist_extension<br /> * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Username_Blacklist<br /> * http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/category/mediawiki/<br /> <br /> If you need help with that, just drop me a message :)<br /> <br /> All the best,<br /> <br /> Tels</div>
