Forget it -- there's not much we can do about the constant spamming until Joanna can protect the page. -- Benjw 16:30, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

I just wonder, why they chose this page. Normally, those spambots take popular pages like the Main Page or "Current Events". Also, how about a captcha system? I had one installed in some other wiki I'm in. It's a very simple captcha, it just asks anonymous users to add two numbers together. The numbers were even given in plain text, so even visually impaired people can use it. Bots however should be able to solve it, too. They don't do it, however, since we installed that captcha, we haven't had a single spam-post. Koepfel talk 16:39, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
BTW, this is the captcha we used. Koepfel talk 16:42, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
