Vandalism from bots
There seems to be quite a bit of vandalism latley from spam bots. Silver Gate Squadron mentioned an idea about semi protecting every single page. So what are the thoughts on this?
- I'd be OK with it. As I was told, Laggynate wants to be alerted whenever a page is locked, so I assume this would constitute a massive locking spree. Jesus Saves 13:41, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
- Well all 3 of us and maybe even laggynate would have to spend some time protecting them. I will also talk to Matt since an operation of this size needs his approval. --Phil Sutherland 13:58, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
* As I understand it, "protect" and "lock" are two different things. I beleive "protected" pages can be edited by anyone as long as they are a registered user (not just a random IP address) and I was suggesting that. Since most of the vandalism seems to be coming from unregistered IP addresses. Not a full lockdown (as has been done on a few pages, like how the Oracle page used to have the wrong info in the grid but nobody could change it). Silver Gate Squadron 04:56, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
