Hello,
Spam programs have posted spam links on our wiki for a while. Although
SpamBacklist extension was installed, "php cleanup.php" was to revert the
spam links. After ConfirmEdit extension was installed, spam programs are
difficult to post spam automatically. However, those spam links are still in
page history, and in database. For example, the following page has a lot of
revision of spam links:
http://kb.linuxvirtualserver.org/wiki?title=Building_Scalable_TFTP_Cluster_…
It's really annoying to keep those spams in the database, which occupy a lot
of space.
I am not sure if there are any tools to remove spams in database
automatically and permanently. For example, the script tool iterates over
every page, and check if there is any revision in history equal to the
current page, if so, remove all revisions after the matched revision?
Thanks for your suggestion in advance,
Wensong
