Halo Sergio,
there are two kind of spam attacking the wiki

1. editing existing pages
2. creating new spam pages

......

How about we turn on new account's email validation feature?
Please see:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam#Restrict_editing

And restrict no anonymous editing/creating
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access#Restrict_anonymous_editing


# Anonymous users can't edit pages
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
# Anonymous users can't create pages
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;


These options are all implemented.


Thanks Jake, I have monitoring new pages on wiki.
And I am only found 3 spam pages within a week. (period Sept 12 - 19)
