The best would be a list from a network administrator. If the request comes from a user, I resort to whois queries based upon their IP address. A more automated approach would be to extract prefixes via a BGP feed from an ISP that peers at the HIX, but the problem is getting an ISP to sponsor such a feed. -Vince

Most wikis store revisions to the wiki pages. So removing the spam manually is simply a matter of reverting to the version of the page right before the spam was made. I thought about restricting access to just Hawaii IP addresses, but I have not received netblock updates in a long time. (Road Runner employees are you listening? :) The ultimate solution would be to enforce authentication, but I still want to take the anarchist approach here and make it possible for anyone in the world to be able to modify the wiki contents; at least until things get out of hand. -Vince
