Anyone who follows pages on the wiki will be  notified of edits... And anyone 
can admin those pages.

Of course the wiki has always had trouble recruiting help like this...

Hi Andre,

When the forum started getting inundated with spam, we addressed it by adding 
more moderators.  Maybe we can do that with the wiki as well.

Looking at
http://wiki.maemo.org/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&limit=500&days=30
you can see that spam comments are added rather often nowadays, both by
registered accounts but mostly by anonymous edits.
http://wiki.maemo.org/Special:Ipblocklist lists blocked accounts and
IPs.

I wonder if those changes happen automatically (not really sure) and if
some better protection should be introduced (and if it would help), such
as CAPTCHAs. This has been discussed before, see
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3860 for some context.
It's probably not the biggest issue, but annoying for those that spend
time trying to keep the wiki clean of vandalism.
