Responding to Abd's points: We're operating under very different
parameters than, say, a Wikimedia-operated wiki like Wikiversity.  In

spam.  There are big advantages to sharing spam fighting resources with
Wikipedia.

I imagine that using some spam-deterring plugins would go a lot of the way. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam . I don't know this, though, as I haven't administered any Mediawiki sites myself.
