Hi,
Since about 11th January, wiki.o.o has been under attack by spammers.
They're creating new pages at a rate of more than 50 a day, with titles
that hint at calling certain phone numbers for various services. As a
result, google has started de-ranking o.o :)
If you look at
https://wiki.openstack.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NewPages
you'll see them.
It's across more than a dozen user accounts. I'm going to attempt some
manual cleaning, but we probably need to look for an extension to do
something about this pro-actively.
Regards,
Tom
