The Monkey Island Wiki is flooded with too many spam links!

edited March 2014 in General Chat

We have a problem with the Monkey Island Wiki! A few weeks ago, this website was very normal. But within days, thousands of spammers have flooded the Wiki with thousands of spam articles! Somebody needs to do a complete overhaul of the Wiki and delete all the spam! Here's a link for this mess!

  • Well, I guess I did it all by myself. I blocked out all the spambots and deleted all their spam articles, all in a single day (well, in two days' time, actually) and made the wiki clean again. The proof is in the deletion logs here:

    Still, the spammers keep on coming and posting their spam! I can't keep doing this forever. Someone has to do something about it.

  • Lock down the Wiki? It's not like there's a whole lot of new Monkey Island news lately. The spammers don't care.
