Yep, looks like it; thanks for taking care of it. It's not our first
though; a spambot repeatedly added viagra spam to
https:;;www.noisebridge.net;index.php?title=Talk:Noisebridge_Vision;
(replace ; with / to get the actual url) back in november, and the
/index.php page has actually been spammed 4 or 5 times before.
I don't think we need to change anything right now; if the problem
becomes a lot worse we can obviously implement anti-spam wiki measures
such as keyword matching, but I'm content to revert a few edits a week
to keep our current mostly-open policy.
