| ---- To the idiot at 219.88.*.* who kept porn-spamming this page: congratulations. Because of you, I have blocked the entire /16 netblock (apparently a huge chunk of New Zealand). '''Why''' do we let idiots have dynamic IP addresses?? . Also, congratulations to greycat for blocking a whopping 65536 users out of spite just to stop one little spammer - an obviously constructive method of dealing with the fact that one's running an open wiki on a hostile network. . And what would you do instead? Require me to activate wiki accounts by hand before letting people edit pages? . A suggestion 1) I get a lot of mileage on my personal wiki out of blocking anonymous users from saving pages with URLs in them. . A suggestion 2) Please install and activate ''Captchpa'' feature which would be asked before attempting to edit a page . A suggestion 3) Require to to use ''Preview'' before page is actually posted. . A suggestion 4) Use [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarpit_(networking)|teergrube]] (technique from SMTP spammer tar-pits). Accept page only after N minutes has passed since user pressed ''edit''. Say 3 minutes. (From an unaffected chunk of NZ): Thanks for the pages, greycat. It occurs to me that a wiki ought to be able to block edits from IP ranges without blocking views. I'll look into moinmoin. As of a couple days ago (early Feb 2009), this wiki now uses [[HelpOnSpam|text captchas]] on page edits. [[TrustedEditorGroup|Trusted editors]] will not see them. If you're not smart enough to answer the (extremely simple) questions, then you lose. (That's potentially a small problem on pages that say "ask your questions here", but really... the captcha questions are ''very'' simple.) I also removed all firewall-level IP blocks, for now at least. |
