As far as I recall, the captcha is triggered if any new external link
is added. But some links are blacklisted and can never be added
regardless.
humm.. could the
external link emulated with ajax?
//Say Hello Mom!
ajax.setRequestHeader("Referer",
"http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Effect&action=edit");
Ajax doesn't work across domains. If a rogue sysop were to add
malicious JS to MediaWiki:Common.js, then sure, you could probably do
fun stuff like forge edits somehow.
