That it-self link to

[edit] vandalism

How we can block vandal or robot who deleted or modified some topics last days (5-7 june 2007)? admins, please try check (and block) IP. Fizick

For the moment the incidents are few, but it may as well someone tests a robot for later launching a full attack (the random user names are suspicious).
Is it possible to ask in the registration and login screens the user to enter an additional code shown in a graphic (an image) as many sites do to ensure there is a human and not an automated script behind? This, together with other possible measures:
  • an expiry date say of 1-2 days for the "remember login on this computer" feature
  • a limit on the per hour transactions (page edits) allowed for users
  • an automated blocking of any user not in a known-good-users list that initiates many transactions
would make using robots harder (and limit the needed revert operations). But how easy (or hard) is to implement those? Gzarkadas 15:27, 7 June 2007 (PDT)
