If you switch to forcing users to register in order to edit, then you
get spam bots creating user accounts, which are harder to delete. So
far, it does not take much work to delete the spam using the
mediawiki admin tools ("delete", "protect", "watch", etc.) I am
pretty sure that is how it is done on wikipedia.
yes, it would be nice that one the admins protects at least the main page of the mediawiki as JérÎme Abel did on the French version. Works fine and it's just two clicks away.

Hi,
we are working on french PdPedia and the english version has been spammed today after we cleaned somes pages so would it be possible to allow only registered user to edit on the pdpedia wiki (urgent), and would it be possible to add a captcha to register (maybe later) ? let's fight against bot !!!
thanks Benjamin
