It's not so clear from the Extension page, but, once the extension is installed, there is a new Wiki page made available called MediaWiki:Titleblacklist, and the maintnenace/setup etc. is done from there. It's a list of regular expressions... so it isn't the most user friendly, but not all that different from the regex option (a standard MediaWiki feature) I added to the LocalSettings.php file to block (or limit) spam content in page edits.
