If we do this, we either need a moderation system for all new users or
some sort of CAPTCHA. Having set up several wikis in the past year, I

(blog spam, wiki spam, spam spam spam) in two weeks or less.

Again I would be careful here. This is asking for abuse. What were you
thinking? PJIRC? http://www.pjirc.com/main.php

Did you want people to move the discussion over there, or can we keep
rolling with this inw-wide thread? :P
