I've just reverted Valera's spammy edits to the PND Cookbook wiki page.


That made me wonder: How are we handling spammers on the wiki? Is there any way to disable accounts that are identified as such before they continue to spam the wiki? I don't mind handling them manually, assuming they're actual people (which seems to be the case right now), but if we have bots opening accounts to spam the wiki, it could get messy.
 
In most wiki there are always someone that spots the edits and revert back using the history.


I suppose administrators can block spammers and vandals account.
