Is there a way to say that if a edit inserts more than say... 50
links, to deny it?
If not, how would I go about making a plugin.
Im sure I could hack the code to do it, but I think I need to graduate
from hack and enter the plugin world.

Use
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit on link adding.
I think it would be nice to have an option for the CAPTCHA to trigger only
for edits that add more than a certain number of new links. (So a setting of
0 would duplicate the current behavior of triggering as a result of _any_
new links.)
