Thread:Project:Support desk/Missing Admin/reply (5)

Depending on how the wiki should be used, it might be an idea to adjust user permissions:

The wiki currently is configured to allow everyone to edit it - also without having an account. Countermeasures against spam can be to force people to have an account in order to be allowed to edit. Anonymous users will then no longer be able to edit the wiki. Additionally you can also disable account creation for ordinary users. With the extension ConfirmAccount users can then still request an account themselves, but an admin has to confirm each account, before it can be used. Or you can disable account creation for all normal users; then admins have to actually create an account, before someone can use it.

Also can you use the extension ConfirmEdit to put a captcha in during account creation or even during editing. That way ordinary users can only create an account or do an edit, if they provided the correct answer for the captcha.
