Someone has spammed the nexuiz wiki. These bastards should be smacked down!
http://savage747.sa.funpic.de/wiki/pmwiki.php
Perhaps the wiki should require one to login before editing?

I have the strange feeling, this isn't a real person. I have seen such thing on the perlbox.org forum (voice recognition app for linux). I'm pretty sure this was a bot.
Afaik not much to do about this. Only to delete.

I just pisses me off every time!
Everytime good people do good things, 10 assholes have to kick it. It just gets me down.
They should unleash their destructive tendencies by playing nexuiz instead !

Wikipedia is a gereralized wiki. the nexuiz wiki is very specialiced and contains lots and lots of info that mopst people are not at all interested in. Also wikipedia is moderated by people that dont know nexuiz too well..

One of my "all-time-open" browser tabs is http://savage747.sa.funpic.de/wiki/pmwi ... entChanges which shows pages that have been changed recently. Some of those changes get reverted in under 3 minutes that way 
Which is actually easy.. Click on "Page History", then the first "restore" link and finaly on save. So three clicks to undo such crap. While its right there can be tricks to make this harder for people its also nice because its easier for people to participate. However i would like the ability to log into the wiki so that one can be sure a change was done by a registered user. Right now you can just add a name and can also fake names that way.. thats bad ..

esteel: scripts/authuser.php can add user auth to the pmwiki(newest version), i haven't gotten around to looking at it yet. only drawback would be the need to registre users
