What's with all the spam on the front page of the Wiki? I hate them comment spammers.

Looks like RichardP and Zonker have made a pass through and cleaned it all up. That sure is annoying, though.

The ammount of spam on there is insane - just glancing at the Recent Changes page shows that RichardP is fighting about 20 defacements every day. Maybe time to change to a more robust wiki?

I could install MediaWiki, but it seems like a big pain to move everything to a new site.
