We now have tools for removing spam completely from this site. You do not need to save a previous revision over the spammed page. This only makes the process slightly harder for the admins.

If you want to take action, just put the word "spammed" at the top, so we can search for that. We'll still scrutinize each page for false positives.

Now, if the spammer has actually messed up the content, and not simply added links, you should revert the page to the good content, but still add the word "spammed" or "spammed - revision #123" to the top.

Update: MoinMoin has a content filtering system that will control most spam. You can document here if pages are spammed, but it should not happen anymore. -- TheAnarcat ?DateTime(2006-05-15T02:03:01Z)

Obsolete

Obviously, MoinMoin has not solved the spam problem. This page could be deleted. See: ?MajorSpamProblem
