<p class=MsoNormal>Almost every day, Justin, Makopoppo and I have to delete
spam from the<br>
wiki, and lately, we have seen a steady increase of the amount of spam<br>
that pops up on the wiki.<br>
I would therefore like to propose installing the ConfirmEdit extension<br>
on the OpenSim wiki, which will present the user with a captcha when<br>
the newly added text contains an external link.<br>
I do believe that requiring decoding a captcha when a newly added text<br>
contains an external link will dramatically decrease the number of<br>
successful spamming attempts on the wiki.<br>
To regular users, a captcha may be a minor inconvenience, in that they<br>
will have to perform one additional, but small, step before their text<br>
is published. For spammers however, it will be a hindrance, because<br>
they will no longer be able to use an automated process to sign up,<br>
and post their spam.<br>
<br>
