You can run all edits through a regular expression to check for this exact type of thing

I used this on a site of mine to see if a user inserted 10 or more links - Just place in
local settings
$wgSpamRegex = '/(\[http:\/\/[a-z0-9\.\/\%_-]+(\s+[a-z0-9\.-]+)+\]\s+){10}/i';

Does anyone know how I can detect whether a user has
inserted a website link in the revision of the text that was submitted? I know how to
check their age.
My idea for this extension it: If a new user submits a link, they'll be asked to
instead use the talk page.
