Wiki anti-spam discussion
=========================

There's no perfect solution here - we're having to work out spam/ham
on a small amount of information, and we can never be *100%* sure.

Just another 2 cents (maybe already implemented?)

- For every new wiki account, mail a copy of the very first page edit (diff) to a small number of people. Should be very easy to spot spam, and only then some action needs to be taken.

- Have an easy way to mass-revert all edits by a given user account, to be used in the above case.
