Hi Nic,

as of today, several vandalism/spam edits from "registered users" (obviously spambots) have appeared. The initial attack was adding lots of gash to the front page, which is not protected against edits from registered users, in two subsequent instances. Since then I have deleted five spam articles that were entirely new, each by a different registered user.

Can we protect the front page against all edits by non-admins?

Can we place a safety system on some sort on user registration?
