OK, so, MediaWiki nas a nice manual on how to combat spam ( 
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam )

Would it be possible to get these implemented:

*  update Apache web server configuration to block all spammer IPs in 
lists available from www.stopforumspam.com . Alternate, use the 
mediawiki plugin that does the same: 
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StopForumSpam

* Configre the ConfirmEdit extension to set it to display a CAPTCHA when 
creating a new page:

$wgCaptchaTriggers['create']        = true;


Regards,


Tom
