Anonymous edits disabled

I've gone ahead and disabled anonymous edits due to the high volume of wiki spamming. I'll be implementing some kind of anti-spam measures (most likely a CAPTCHA) before turning anonymous edits back on. I hate to do this, but it's starting to get out of control. -- Dossy 08:11, 24 March 2006 (EST)

Since I know the spammers can create accounts (I just deleted ~600 of them), I've changed things so that only users who have a confirmed email address can make edits. You can set your email address via Special:Preferences then confirm it with Special:Confirmemail. -- Dossy 08:29, 24 March 2006 (EST)

I agree with your decision Dossy. The spam was out of control. Vkurup 20:22, 29 March 2006 (EST)

  • Thanks, Vinod. I especially appreciate your vigilance in rolling back the edits. Now, how do we encourage actual contributors to make changes to the wiki ... :-) -- Dossy 01:14, 30 March 2006 (EST)
