Hi Sam,
Sure, I'm always looking to improve our spam-fighting tactics on the
wikis we use... feel free to ping [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] with
advice and suggestions!

Chris,
Would you ever be interested to possibly explore other wiki options
beyond PBWiki? Or, alternatively, maybe the PBWiki folks need a hand
with anti-wiki-spam measures?
Hopefully I won't drift too far into techical waters, and away from
coworking, but there may be some simple to implement anti spam
measures that PBWiki could employ, that have worked quite well on
other wiki engines, like content banning, open proxy banning, banning
IP ranges, pooling spam link content (even if just done among hosted
pbwikis, this could create a large shared resource of banned content,
banned IP's, etc)
I'm interested in talking to PBWiki people about this, if you think
they are interested. I've had experience with fighting spam in both
totally open (non-login) and more protected wikis. I also see that
PBWiki has an API, and maybe some of the solutions that have worked
for Perl wikis like OddMuse and UseMod, and Ruby wiki like Ruse, and
PHP wikis like Dokuwiki, could work for PbWiki?
Just some ideas, anway...back to your regularly scheduled Coworking...

Apparently the old password is too guessable by PBWiki's terms, so
I've kept it as the new password:
c0w0rking
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Due to a number of spam/abuse issues lately, I changed the password to
something less obvious, but I suppose I'll change it back now and see
how we fare.

Hello,
The coworkingwikidoesn't seem to be taking the coworking password
anymore. I couldn't find a contact info for the administrator so I'm
posting here for help. I guess after the password is restored, whoever
is administering thewikishould put their contact info on the front
page.
