I'm not going to debate the ethnicity I'm just going to say what can/can't be done with MediaWiki and how one could do it.

The last "person' to spam my wiki did register. It's actually more annoying when they do register, since I needed to dig through my apache log files to track down an ip address to block. I figure that it's useless to block a spammer by name since they'll just re-register under a different one. It would actually be nice if mediawiki would keep the ip address(es) used by 'registered' users as well. Perhaps only visible to sysops.
In LocalSettings.php: $wgPutIPinRC = true;
This will place the IP in the rc_ip field in the recentchanges table. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of how to access it from the UI.
