Editing the wiki

Post by bluesign2k » August 7th, 2011, 7:13 pm

As we now seem to have an increase in spam content appearing on the wiki, editing of pages is now only possible if you have confirmed you're email address. This can be done by logging in to your account on the wiki, going into "My preferences" (top right) and scrolling down to the section titled "E-mail options".

Good move!

It seems that lots of what I imagine are spam accounts are still being registered but none seem to be posting anything.

No problem... I figured that the problem was only going to get worse until something was done, I just hope it won't deter real users from contributing. I think I've found a way to remove(ish) the spam accounts too but I'll let you know when I have it figure out :)
