Make it members only, it's stupidly simple.

Re: Wiki
 

So is the 'council' really that dead that you are going to let the wiki get taken over by bots?

Re: Wiki
 

Actually the 'council' don't have rights to administrate the wiki. Only Nova, Onno and PMB have such rights I think.

Re: Wiki
 

So I guess the 3 guys capable of doing something about it are MIA ?

Re: Wiki
 

Hi,

I added a simple http-auth for the wiki subsomain.

Username: wiki
Password: nospam


this is just to make it usable again, this no real fix.

Again, please contact me, if you are interested in running the wiki subdomain at bots united.

I will be glad to setup the webhosting stuff for you :)
You should have some time per week for a longer time than 3 month :)


Cheers Onno

p.s. please spread the news regarding the passwort and the search for a new maintainer for thew wiki.

Re: Wiki
 

Thanks Onno. Your short term fix has passed it's first week with perfect results so I guess the spammers were only using spambots. I think I reverted all the affected articles so the wiki should be clean.

Is there any way to add a hint line to the user-password box?

Re: Wiki
 

For 5 months Onno's simple fix worked. But today I note an anonymous (193.216.207.101) vandal wiping out the main page. I will monitor it a bit then restore the page later.

Maybe it is time to think about changing the user-password.
