Hi Andrew,
Looks like you also could split the combined filter into a few more
basic
filters and let the JSPWiki take care of combining them.
(i.e. a chapta filer, spamwords filter, externallinks filter, number of
edits filter, etc.)
While you're at it, could you have a look at making the messages
configurable?
I have been confronted by users that did not like the tongue-in-cheek
messages telling them they could not do what they wanted because of some
Herb :-)
I ended up hiding the SpamFilter in a closed collapsebox because of it.
regards, Andre

Good points. I do think it makes sense to have a reCaptcha option
among others that might arise.
On a side note, I'm fooling around with SpamFilter to make it a lot
more extensible. I have this idea about stackable "Inspector" objects
that extract the current (rather complex) logic into separate
implementions, but which collaborate on the outcome. The driver for
this was the need to have better integration with the view layer and
additional captcha systems.
I'll run the design by you when it firms up, but my initial
experiments look very promising. I think you'll like it a lot.
