I just see 2 ways 1) Disallow anonymous addition/editing, so only registered users can add/edit the content, if the user creates mischief, he/she can be banned. But, there is no way to stop them from re-registering 2) Keep moderating for bad additions/edits, and remove/revert them. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
