It should generally be possible to limit editing of wiki pages to registered users, as it's done here.
Wierd...
80.68.242.97 = redirect to https://control.hw.ru/cgi-bin/cph/index.pl
Moreover, the ip is static, so you can just block 80.68.242.97 by itself, solving the problem.
Just my thoughts,

Suggestions:
- Request login for everyone who want to change something in wiki
- Give edit rights only for trusted people, everyone should ask for edit rights from the administrator of ROS wiki.
If someone vandalizes wiki after that, it should be easy to block him/her out and not giving edit rights for that person ever again. You should be able to check is the people trusted or not by just checking the persons posts to discussion groups.

Some idiots definitely don't know what else to do with their spare time... Was it done by the same person?Sami wrote:more pages vandalized
That still won't for sure prevent such obfuscation. But it'd help a little, I agree. There's another possibility to make the 'wiki' SVN based, which means there are people who review changes and finally apply them. The disadvantage however is, that only certain people finally can make changes...Sami wrote:If someone vandalizes wiki after that, it should be easy to block him/her out and not giving edit rights for that person ever again.

I'd vote for the requirement of a login, maybe we could combine this with the phpbb user management.

It's not like it's a requirement that the Wiki can be edited anonymously. Integrity of the information on it is the foremost priority.
