There are excellent robot.txt files out there on
the net and if you google for them you might find
some and if that doesn't work, make a .htacces
file which will block them indefinitely.

How lovely, all those spambots adding and removing the spam from its
partners.
Tried to install SpamBlacklist. Used the simple
setup suggested for
localsettings.php (without including array). Did not get it to work.
That's because
hi5.com isn't on the meta blacklist
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Spam_blacklist
Try adding it to
http://www.whatleadership.us/wiki/MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist
Also tried to protect the page with no result.
The pages on those RecentChanges aren't protected. Note that on
deleting, the page will no longer be protected. You need to protect
against creation.
The SpamBlacklist extension's talk page has
old discussions about it not
working, no apparent solution at hand.
Any hints?
