Dear Gordo, When i had attack from spam bot, then i implement Google Captcha protection, but there still a lot of spam bot coming, their method is creating a lot of random username then cretate page that contains random article from internet. So, after i realize this captcha protection can not help me, then i block user registration and user post (create page / edit), only admin can post/edit -_- Now, there is no spammer again, but this is not what i want
Thank you
I'm still waiting for mediawiki consultant for hire.. because i want to redesign my wiki page too..
Best Regards, Yudi

My advice is to stop self registration, and just sign up people who have applied to use your wiki. This line appears in my LocalSettings.php
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;
I also have
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgEmailConfirmToEdit='true';
