Looks like our wiki is the target of a pr0n spam bot. It obviously
uses zombies, and there's no reasonable way to block it other than with
making logging in mandatory. Blocking IP addresses is pointless and
will lead nowhere. I don't even consider mandatory login a bad thing --
why would we want anonymous people to edit FlightGear content? These
pages are very visible to the public, and content found there is linked
to the project. (BTW: I also find it undesirable that people use nicks
in the Wiki. I prefer to see who edited what, and being able to contact
him/her via email. How would I contact "FlightZilla"?)
