I'd love to do more to combat spam, but all I can do as an admin is block bots and delete edits. Only User:Harknell can. You'd have the best chance of finding him on the Forum. If the situation doesn't get some attention, I'll PM Balder about it. Miment 04:32, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Just an update, I talked with Rob about it a bit on IRC. He knows, and he's telling Harknell. 

[15:02] <RobTitan> Primary problem is with new pages being created, then?
[15:03] <Miment> Yes
[15:04] <Miment> Disabling new pages would be an OK temp fix, but requiring a proper captcha on edits with new external links should stop basically any type of spam.
[15:07] <RobTitan> I will quote you on that directly to Harknell in this email I am composing.
