So I get hot by about 50 spam edits a day, but they all do the same thing. They just insert what seems to be exactly 200 links.
Is there a way to say that if a edit inserts more than say... 50 links, to deny it? If not, how would I go about making a plugin. Im sure I could hack the code to do it, but I think I need to graduate from hack and enter the plugin world.
Thanks,

Use http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit on link adding.
I think it would be nice to have an option for the CAPTCHA to trigger only for edits that add more than a certain number of new links. (So a setting of 0 would duplicate the current behavior of triggering as a result of _any_ new links.)
