Hey Jesse and James,

perhaps it makes sense to try out captchas for
our wiki to reduace spam.
One example is recaptcha:
http://recaptcha.net/

It offers a plugin for mediawiki, so installation should
be straightforward:
http://recaptcha.net/plugins/mediawiki/

Just a suggestion...

Holger

Holger,

   I attempted to install captcha software onto our wiki about 2 months ago. I'm not a PHP guy in the least, and couldn't make any sense of the errors I was receiving, so I promptly uninstalled it. If you'd like to make an attempt, that would be great too. Jesse can give you the information to connect to our hosting provider for publicobject.com, if you like.

James,

I've no experiences with site management or wiki setup, so I'd like to leave
publicobject.com-administration to you and Jesse - sorry.
