We disabled the CAPTCHA entirely on

The wiki seems to be about the same. It probably makes sense to continue
slowly disabling the CAPTCHA on wikis until users start to shout.
Perhaps we'll disable the CAPTCHA on the rest of the phase 0 wikis next?
It would be nice. What are these wikis? Can we ask them for permission on
their village pumps?
Err, group 0, not phase 0!
<https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=group0.dblist> is the
list. I think we can convince the various affected communities. :-)
Patch up for review:

Do we have metrics for the effect the change has had on testwiki,
before we roll this out further? Number of accounts registered, number
of those who are later blocked for spam, number of edits reverted as
spam, etc?
With SUL, disabling captcha for account creation on one wiki
effectively means we have disabled it on all wikis (create account on
testwiki, visit enwiki, you're autocreated, edit!).
I definitely support experimenting, I just want to make sure we're
collecting and watching the right numbers while we experiment.
