Just thought I’d link to a few posts done by others.
Etanisla has a few domains she advises to block
John Graham-Cumming has written The Spammer’s compendium. Mainly about mail spam.
There’s a WP plugin at The Daily Irrelevant. Scanning contents of posts against a database of bad URLs, if I understood correctly.
The Register talks about a spam map from Mailinator.
And I just thought I should mention something about MediaWiki. Some users have been complaining that they can’t save edits. When they click on Save Page, they just get the preview instead. They can click that save page multiple times, and each time they get the preview. Some edits may be lost that way. On the other hand, if you’re NOT logged in, you are able to save your edits. If that problem suddenly appears, there’s one thing you may want to check…
It just MIGHT be caused by a website account with no free space. Free up some space, and see if that problem gets solved… It tracks with the reason the geeks give for why this problem occurs…
