Hi all,
I'm sad to say that:
* spammers are back - 100-odd pages have gone in over the weekend
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Special:NewPages
* Cleanup was ineffective, with many spam pages still existing on
the wiki
(scroll through the NewPages link above)
So, just a quick update to this. We just landed 287323[1] which
installs
SmiteSpam[2]. If you are in the bureaucrat group on wiki.o.o you'll
be able to
access it.
Currently I've started the process on cleanup the wiki. At the
moment, I've
blocked 54[3] account and delete 430+[4] pages. I'll send a follow up
email once
I am done for the day, but moving forward it will be easier for
admins to detect
the spam and stop it faster.

Cheers Paul! This looks like a very handy extension. I've deleted a
couple pages already
So, *sigh*. I've been trying to use
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Special:Nuke
to delete pages matching
%1%800% (there are about 5000)
and it doesn't work :(
Everything appears to be fine, but the pages don't get deleted or appear
on the deletion log.
Also, appear to have exhausted the usefulness of smitespam for our
particular case (though I suspect it will be good for the future). It
appears to focus on pages with lots of external links, whereas our spam
was mainly text-based, so even though many spam pages remain they aren't
listed at smitespam.
