Dear Nico,
We are using http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmAccount almost
since the beginning of Proteopedia, and are quite happy with it.
The extension has a nice user interface for requesting accounts, and an easy to
use administration interface for approving, rejecting or place on hold requests.
The installation is quite straightforward, but I'll be happy in answering
questions should you have any.
Best regards,
Jaim

Hi Angel,
Sorry for the long delay to reply, I was on holidays when you sent your mail
and much work to do since coming back.
I've had a quick look at MW options (
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuration_settings#Users ), and I
didn't find an option to require authorization to create an account.
If you know how to do this, I'll use it.
I don't think it will too much a problem for the system (MW is clearly designed
to handle huge systems, 17M users registered on enwiki)
I would need to upgrade the wiki to a newer MW (1.19.1 probably), but need free
time to do so...
Hopefully, the new MW will help
Nico

Nico,
I find the number of new, false, users per day in Jmol Wiki is just ridiculous.
They do not insert much spam thanks to the measures you activated, but
having this number of useless entries will eventually hamper the system.
In my opinion you should disable user auto-sign up altogether. I don't mind to
take care of accepting new users manually; it will be less work than clearing
all these fake entries.
