Pandora Wiki always asking for Password

[Wally]

Just noticed that the Pandora Wiki is always asking for a password on my account every-time I edit / create a new page.

Any ideas why?

It was enabled by ED to definitely block spam.

To prevent massive spambot user creations (yeah, we had that issue...), you need a password to register a new user.

Its only supposed to be for "New Users" not for existing users.


It comes up when I hit "Submit"

Bumping this for ED to see

I think a creation of a new page also needs a password, afair.

So does editing a page sadly

This still isn't fixed?

I'm not going to edit the wiki with that nonsense in place.

[edit]What the hell, it's inconsistent now.  Ugh, I'm tolerating it..

Didnt ask me anything for making a page nor editing it.

I saved the page first with no content. Cant recall having been asked my password, but the again that is in a cookie.

Which password is required, the no-spam one, or your account pass?

Edit: Maybe its because you arent on the list of active users ?

I only have to put in that password when adding a new link to a page. Granted, that's quite a lot of the time, but I can understand why it's needed. If I'm just fixing a typo it's never asked me for it.

I added a link no questions asked, internal and external.

Perhaps something's changed then. It's been a while since I've done any wiki work.
