[Wikipedia-l] Disabling some features for speed

[Axel Boldt]

As an experiment which wouldn't hurt much (certainly not as much as
the current slowdowns), I second the plan to disable the user
contributions feature for now.

Jason or Jimbo, the quickest and dirtiest way to do that would be to
remove/rename the special_contributions.php file.

As mentioned earlier, it would also be good to remove/rename
special_asksql.php because the developer passwords have been
compromised. It is even possible that some of the direct sql queries
are slowing down the site.
