[Mediawiki-l] SpamBlacklist.php

[Laurie Lewis]

How do you configure the SpamBlacklist to use a page in the MediaWiki
namespace when you have multiple wikis being separated by the use of a
prefix.  The configuration asks you for a database name - I would assume
that it will look for a default table name - can you tell it to use one
of the tables with a prefix eg en_.

Hi Rick & all,

I just forgot about this question:

Since I have several words and sentences which I don't want my
'collaborators'(vandals) to use, I though it my have some way to put all
those words and sentences in a list. Some think like SpamBlacklist, but
to
work with words and sentences instead of URLs, files.

I know I can use $wgSpamRegex. However, it would really become
cumbersome,
since I have several words and plus several sentences I don't want to be
used.

Any idea? Any help is much appreciated. 

Thanks, mauro.

It looks like you are running MW 1.5, the spam blacklist extension was
written against 1.4 and needs to be patched to work with 1.5 which has
no cur table in the database.

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SpamBlacklist_extension#Patch_for_1.5_Com
pati
bility

includes the patch. Read it carefully and note that the spam list
article needs to be moved the MediaWiki namespace, which is the
namespace where all the system messages exist.

No it doesn't. Require_once is a php language directive which searches
for the file to be included in several places according to the include
path.

The code in the spamblacklist extension only uses the complete file
path you specify.  The readme file examples start with $IP/... where
$IP is the variable set near the beginning of Localsettings.php and
holds the path to where mediawiki is installed.
