Hi,
Can anyone recommend a spam filter whereby one can specify a filter pattern along with the specific page to which the filter applies AND can be accessed and modified via the API?
thanks, al

AbuseFilter has an API, but it is read-only. It shouldn't be to hard to add endpoints to the API so that you can modify the filters.

I had actually thought about implementing an api to add and remove filters, to shorten the time from an admin having to revert the same type of spam on a wiki and getting an AF rule in place to block it. If you're interested in the feature, it would be great to open a ticket and add in your use case.
Hi Chris,
Open a ticket for AbuseFilter?
