Yeah! Lets talk to Atlassian about implementing this!!
Atlassian New Features:
Burning Oil on [EMAIL PROTECTED] for Spam
Smack in the right nut for miss spelling
etc.
Hmmm - On a lot of the wiki's I just create an account and I can add
markup to the pages.
I'm thinking this is one of those very quickly self policed type things.
If someone adds spam, someone else takes it down very quickly, and the
domain from which the spam
came from is black listed.
Or
Someone creates a documentation patch via the Atlassian editor
The patch gets submitted to someone in our team
Reviewed
Applied.
So the patch is only applied locally in the users account (Appearing as
if others can see it too, until reviewed),
then once reviewed others can see it.

might not be so easy or even worth doing.
Oh another thing to worry about are those darn spammers. We need
to find a way to prevent that which becomes impossible when not
locking things down. :(
Oye ve! This might just be one of those features not worth the
labor to have.

Confluence normally supports comments, as you may already
know. But
our theme just does not display them. We can change the theme
to show
the comments on each page. But the license problem still exists.
