Wiki Needs Clean Up

[Darvin]

There are over 400 pages of spam...

Look on the wiki thread. I believe there's a link to a spam deleting program.

The wiki is getting 5-20 pages of spam posted every day. Short of actually having fans patrolling it 24/7, it's just not feasible to keep it clean.

Is there away to track posts like devs do for new posters?

[Darvin]

Doesn't matter; the spambots make a new account for each posting. I've banned a total of 16 spambot accounts today alone:

It seems like the best way to protect the Wiki would be to unify the login with the forums.

That would work quite well, although I have no idea how that's done.

I think only the devs can do that. Let's just hope they do it, because deleting spam is really tiring...

I feel like they should apply Namtar's quote to spam bots. (Why do you even try? There are endless spam bots. I on the other hand, will spam forever...) Now that would be motivating

Agreeing that the wiki logins needs to be unified with the forum. Deleting spam just isn't a viable solution until the security leaks are plugged.
