Jose and I have been seeing this kind of stuff on his Advisor Haven wiki. We've been giving these guys indefblocks [1]. Regards, Tuxide 23:53, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
- Done. --Kerol 06:50, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
- Do you have access to this MediaWiki installation? I am wondering how good http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SpamBlacklist_extension is. I only recommend it because it is installed on all Wikimedia Foundation sites, but I've never used it myself. Regards, Tuxide 03:15, 13 June 2007 (EDT)
- Nope, it's running on Xordans webspace. I can easily ask him to do stuff though. What log would I have to check to see how effective the blacklist is? --Kerol 06:03, 13 June 2007 (EDT)
- Sorry, I asked around and apparently stuff like this isn't logged since edits with blacklisted urls aren't made in the first place. I suppose the only way to test it for certain is to go to Wikipedia's sandbox and try to insert a blacklisted url. There is also http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit which can be used to prevent accounts from being registered by bots. All Wikimedia Foundation sites use this plugin as well.
