Thread:Project:Support desk/Bots regsiter at my wiki website! How to stop them?/reply

You have various options, and here's what I recommend:
 * 1) Use Extension:CheckUser to mass-block the existing bot accounts and their IP addresses
 * 2) Either install Extension:ConfirmAccount or install Extension:SimpleAntiSpam, Extension:ConfirmEdit, and/or (at least two of these) Extension:AbuseFilter.
