Aggh! We need to do something about spam.

• Don't delete the spam, revert to a clean version. See RecentChanges for vandalized pages.

• Get the admin of this wiki to install the solution described at http://moinmo.in/AntiSpamGlobalSolution

• Wreck the spammers pagerank (the only reason why they spam) by reporting them at http://www.chongqed.org/

• Block the IP range where they are coming from. Currently, this would affect *.cn
