1. Bundle ConfirmEdit and AbuseFilter with each
MediaWiki-Download.
ConfirmEdit is bundled. Please add AbuseFilter to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bundled_extensions for discussion.
2. Make QuestyCaptcha the default for ConfirmEdit. It
is easy to use and
more effective than recaptcha, cause it cant be solved by paid workers
from the other side of the planet while allowing interested, legitimate
editors to pass (if your questions are good enough).
This is a good idea. There is some work on providing a SpecialPage
interface for QuestyCaptcha that I think would help this a lot.
3. AbuseFilter should have a pre-installed filter (or
at least a link to
a help page with examples).
I agree. I've wanted to provide a way to bundle help pages, or at least
download them into the wiki.
4. The section about AbuseFilter on
Manual:Combating_spam should contain
examples or a link to a page with examples.
Please add examples you find useful to it.
Thanks for all your insight!
Mark.
