Spam is getting out of control and the only way to solve it, is to make everyone submitting and altering articles enter a code in to prove they are real and not some kind of computer bot.

In order to do this I have to upgrade the wiki, last time I tried this we nearly lost the wiki database, so I am taking precautions and backing up everything before I try.

---Tony, is there anyway to just make it so you have to be logged in to submit an article? Bots tend to just edit via IP instead of username. Pdennett 21:44, 5 May 2007 (EDT)
