The Secretaribot scripts
(https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Secretaribot ) has wruckened havoc
and now removed the hundreds of throwaway spammer accounts and spam
pages.
There are still a few trickling in, but with the addition of a simple
captcha on the user registration page[*], I think we've staunched the
flood.
Interesting Noisebridge Wiki stats from
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Special:Statistics
We've just hit 4 million hits on the front page. We have 641
non-spammy (I think) users, and 2,685 pages. We have 35 users active
in the last week. Top ten pages:

to write a Noisebridgian addition to the

free.)
