it's of use:
About an hour ago, I checked in a PHP script which checks the
database for users who haven't made edits, and deletes them. It runs
from the command line (phpShell seems fine with it, too) and works
relatively quickly.
Thats cool. I have lots of unused acounts registered on my mediawiki
installations. I think most of them are from spambots which never
posted or got blocked by SpamBlacklist.
This probably makes sense on wikipedia too, as I guess there are a lot
of spambot sleepers, which are now useful with the x%/can't edit
blocks.
