I don't mind putting some time in as an admin on there if thats what your hinting at.

I'll have to discuss it with George, I'm not sure if we had any specific plans for it and he manages the site setup.

Nah its no worse than usual in my experience. I'm just glad i'm not the only one deleting it now.

It did slow down a bit once when I was keeping up with it pretty well.. but it started up again after a week or 2.

Edit: Ya we need an active admin.. we have spammers who are just using the same account over and over again. I just had to undo a spammers change to the main page who has used the account to spam 5 or 6 other spam pages then I guess got pissed and so They edited the main page. Seems like they caught on to the fact that its just users deleting their spam and admins aren't banning their accounts.

Awesome, its working for me.

Just deleted every spam page I ever had to blank and boy does my wrist hurt. (My contributions looks empty now without all the spam edits )
Also went down Dom and Sgtscubas contributions and deleted those spam pages as well.. Which all together should be every spam page since July or august of 2011. Now to find some ice for my wrist.

Thanks for this - I had the misfortune of going into the wiki right when the spam thing was underway.

Did a more thorough search.. think I removed every last spam page. If anyone comes across one I missed, Blank it out and I'll delete it when I check the change list.

Note: I've been getting more aggressive with spammers lately since they have increased activity. If someone is accidentally banned in one of my sweeps feel free to post your user name and I'll undo the ban. (I've been banning accounts that are created in clumps and those using nonsensical or overtly commercial user names.. so its possible that someone who happens to create an account the same time spammers are creating accounts could be accidentally banned)

Maybe it might be worth stopping acount creation for a while, or have admin approved signups or some otherway of reducing them because, as Fistalis has said, its getting out of hand (or a quicker way to delete or ban people).
