FAI Wiki Administration Coordination

as with the start of the wiki having lots of trouble with spam at the moment, I need to document some things here we can do about that situation

just some short notes:

• we have now an rss2email service running so Thomas and Henning get changelog to see shit happening immediately. the mail interval is not once a day, which might be too short

• anybody with administrator status in the wiki can help revert changes manually, as explained here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Reverting

• there seems to be no script available that let one delete all changes made by a specific user. This would pare lots of time, and Henning stars fiddling out how to write that - need some deeper knowledge about the database, some hints must be found somewhere in the mediawiki code

I requested this script at mediaiwiki's request for queries page

• I have some futher idea for anti-spam measures, documented on the discussion pageof the mediawiki development page for spam functions

eventually, we couls also add here some more hints about running the fai wiki
