Take a look here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Special:Log/newusers
It's pretty clear that we are getting a LOT of spammers creating new
user accounts. Most are not posting anything to the Wiki (partly due to
a Spam filter regex I added a while back).
Is it worth taking action on this? Or do we just let it slide for now?
What action can we take or should we take?
I brought up the idea of adding a Captcha for new user registrations,
but there was no real definitive answer or agreement on that one.
I remember some kind of add-on that checks new user names and blocks any
that may be "questionable" - scans for certain keywords, but I can't
locate it right now. If I do find it, I'll post back here with a link.
Anyone have any thoughts, ideas, comments on this?
