Looks like you use the same wiki that we in the Hants LUG <

users have been writing and submitting patches to usemod wiki to
counter the spam attacks that we get (check out our recent changes
page to see how bad we have it!).

You might want to contact Hugo Mills who is leading the effort to
share experiences/patches.

Cheers,
Al.
