4. ReCAPTCHA enabled for 'edits adding new, unrecognized external
links' - which is all of the spam.
This is already enabled.
The HaskellWiki is still flooded with spam; we should take some measure to
reduce the stream severely. Most spam seems to be created
(semi-)automated; the pages do not contain links, the usernames end with
two digits, most of the time. Some cures I have thought up:
- Verify new wiki accounts, before granting them rights,
based on e-mails in the Haskell mailing lists
(or subscription of a Haskell mailing list)
- Let new users only change pages, not create new pages
- Block creation of usernames
o ending with two or more digits
o with more than one x or q
o starting with "buy"
o longer than 20 characters
o with more than 4 consonants in a row
- Block creation of pages with words in a certain list
(Coach, Vuitton, Chanel, handbags, purses, outlet, luggage, "Nike Air
Jordan")
