Thread:Project:Support desk/How to prevent links to external Files?

My Versions: MediaWiki: 1.16.5, PHP: 5.2.17, MySQL: 5.1.61

I have a music wiki but I also have links within the wiki to MP3s on the site (not stored within the wiki). For security reasons I want to block people from adding external links.

With SpamRegex I can block external links like below, however it also blocks admins such as myself. Is there any way via an extension or a spam filter or otherwise that I can allow myself to add external links?

$wgSpamRegex = "/http:\/\//";
 * 1) Block ALL external links
