Hi all,

What's the best way to deal with wiki/trac spam? There are a number of
pages out there (i.e.
http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/ManipulatorScript ) which have some
rather, uh, non-django-like attachments to them, but I can't see any
way to remove them (I guess only admins have attachment deleting super
powers).

Similar problem with the ticket system, we seem to be getting a large
number of ******* who like to modify tickets to sell some herbal
enhancement or cut-price handbags. I try to revert these when I see
them, but I guess that makes it harder for you admin guys to notice the
spam and block IP addresses. Especially since a number of them look to
be bot tests (i.e. drop by and change a few values to see how long they
stay changed. If left for a while, then it's time to start advertising
some website with scantily clad young ladies). For example:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/66 -

10/13/06 17:39:24: Modified by Sed
severity changed from normal to critical.
cc set to rgergerger.
component changed from Core framework to Cache system.
priority changed from normal to high.
owner changed from adrian to anonymous.
version set to new-admin.
milestone set to Version 0.91.
keywords set to rgergerger.
type deleted.
h

The problem is that the longer this **** sticks around, the harder the
spammers try, so is there someone we can notify about this? is there
any way of making clean up of this crap easier? are there any other
possible spam solutions (has trac got a bayesian filter plugin?). What
about a django spam cleanup squad?
