* You can set up a throttle on editing using the built-in rate limiter
(see $wgRateLimits; note that this requires memcached or APC user
cache or somesuch)

* You can require that a user have a valid, confirmed email address
prior to editing; see $wgEmailConfirmToEdit

* For the minimum username length limit, have a look at
