* Spammer
 
:I just recently had to fix the Board Game page from a spammer, IP is 202.212.58.10 in case you want to block or take whatever action you need to.--[[User:CJKeys|CJKeys]] 11:11, 6 November 2006 (CST)
 
:: Thanks CJKeys.  I think I'll try to implement a captcha system for new changes that include outside URLs like wikia.com does. [[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] 15:32, 6 November 2006 (CST)
 
:::Had to fix it the [[Board Game]] page again, the IP for the spammer this time was 200.31.148.46. I dont know if you can block IPs but I thought I would let you know it happened again. Thanks.--[[User:CJKeys|CJKeys]] 00:24, 8 November 2006 (CST)
 
::::Also, thanks, CJ. I blocked both IPs for 3 months. --[[User:Revanche|Revanche (admin)]] 01:10, 8 November 2006 (CST)
 
:::::This looks like a minor annoying problem right now, but I could see it getting worse.  Should I spend time investigating captcha for external links in edits? [[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] 21:42, 21 November 2006 (CST)
 
::::::I had to look the term up, since its the second time you've suggested this. How would you envision it working? Would everytime someone made an edit, they'd have to translate the image? Or, would we limit wiki editing only to registered users, who had to pass this test to register? The latter would be preferable to me. --[[User:Revanche|Revanche (admin)]] 00:17, 22 November 2006 (CST)
 
:::::::Well I still want to allow anonymous edits.  The captcha prompt would only occur if 1) The user was not logged in (not registered) AND 2) they posted an edit with an external link.  This would avoid 90% of the 'referral spam' that spambots want.  It wouldn't block vandalism, but we're only trying to curb spam-bots with captcha.
 
::::::::I like it. It is not restrictive for 95% of any edits, as how many times will an unregistered user seek to post links? Is this something you think you can turn on? --[[User:Revanche|Revanche (admin)]] 10:21, 22 November 2006 (CST)
 
:::::::::There may even be a way to get around needing that. The nastiest stuff is usually the &lt;div style="display: none"&gt; and similar crap that adbots love to toss around. You can also try setting a spam blocking RegEx similar to the one Wikipedia uses. It's one of the settings that is heavily documented on either [http://meta.wikimedia.org Meta] or [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki.org]. --[[User:Xoid|Xoid]] 11:49, 22 November 2006 (CST)
 
 
 
==Copyright infringment==
 
Greetings. I have recently become involoved in contributing to BattleTech through the Wikipedia end. I submitted one article over there, "Chaos March." I came over here, only to find that my article had been copied verbatim. By itself, this is fine, because I know Wikipedia articles are public-domain, however no credit was given on the part of the person who 'ported the article to MechWiki. I would appreciate it that, for all articles taken from Wikipedia, credit be given to the original author and/or a link be provided to the original article (as provided in Wikipedia's copyright, which can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights). Since the only article of mine in question I have found is "Chaos March," that is all I am concerned with, however, I am sure the other authors from Wikipedia would appreciate it if you gave them the same consideration.
