Hi all, That can only work when HQ wants to/can allocate resources to check this, but otherwise I would agree that that would be the best option.
Or do away with the Wiki altogether and use a different platform communicate to our audiences. I only see 20 useful edits per day: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/index.php?namespace=0&title=Special%3ARecentChangesen about 50 accounts created on that same day. It really depends on what the underlying idea is of using a wiki. That's the true issue that HQ needs to discuss, either internally of with the community. 2013/11/11 Mike Linksvayer <[email protected]> > I somewhat sadly recommend installing > https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmAccount > > Mike > > On Mon, Nov 11, 2013 at 3:50 AM, Maarten Zeinstra <[email protected]> wrote: > > I had a long discussion about the spam on the wiki about with Nathan > Kinkade about a year ago.
