- Bundle ConfirmEdit and AbuseFilter with each MediaWiki-Download.
ConfirmEdit is bundled. Please add AbuseFilter to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bundled_extensions for discussion.
- Make QuestyCaptcha the default for ConfirmEdit. It is easy to use and
more effective than recaptcha, cause it cant be solved by paid workers from the other side of the planet while allowing interested, legitimate editors to pass (if your questions are good enough).
This is a good idea. There is some work on providing a SpecialPage interface for QuestyCaptcha that I think would help this a lot.
- AbuseFilter should have a pre-installed filter (or at least a link to
a help page with examples).
I agree. I've wanted to provide a way to bundle help pages, or at least download them into the wiki.
- The section about AbuseFilter on Manual:Combating_spam should contain
examples or a link to a page with examples.
Please add examples you find useful to it.
Thanks for all your insight!
Mark.
