Please take a look at recent contribs. There is a spammer who is putting in stuff about Ugg boots. I've rolled it back a few times but the id itself needs blocking. I dropped a note to Dan about this but he did not reply. I'm happy to help if desired, I have plenty of admining experience with wikis. ++[[User:Lar|Lar]]: [[User_talk:Lar|t]]/[[Special:Contributions/Lar|c]] 11:04, 14 January 2009 (EST)</del></div></td><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-added"></td></tr>

As I told Dan, I have some experience with this and if I were an admin here I could roll this stuff back when I see it. The spammers are creating IDs since you (wisely) aren't allowing IP edits... those IDs ripen and then they can use them.

It is possible to configure the wiki so that there is no ability to create IDs just by clicking on register. For example see [http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home the WMF foundation wiki] ... there's only a "log in" not a "register". Access is granted by the 'crats of that wiki after application. It's a configuration setting, done by changing settings in a file on the box, LocalSettings.php, so Dan will have to do it. See [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki the MediaWiki wiki], specifically the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuration_settings#Access access section] of settings. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access#Restrict_account_creation ...

Blocking out boots is fine but it shouldn't create a bottleneck were all applications have to go through Dan or you.

Please take a look at recent contribs. There is a spammer who is putting in stuff about Ugg boots. I've rolled it back a few times but the id itself needs blocking.
