I'm pretty disheartened by this. If it continues, I'll have to turn off external internet access to our wiki (this is for an academic library). We already see quite a few visits from other libraries, and we have some valuable information to share.
One possibility in such case is to have two MediaWiki installations sharing the same database. The public one will disallow account creation / editing , the other remain the same and is restricted to internal use.
