Hey all,
On march 25th someone disabled anonymous logins for the mediawiki and
added some spam filters. I'm re-enabling anonymous logins for the time
being. If account creation is a problem and these settings need to be
changed please email this list and maybe we can come up with a better
solution (mollom?)

That was me (thought I'd emailed the list about it?) - a temp solution to a
botstorm. I'm not sure disabling anonymous edits is even that helpful for
mitigating spam, but maybe we should implement some tricks in the write
process (eg answering questions to confirm. Maybe how hackerspaces.org does
it is a good idea - simple questions that one needs to refer to the
homepage to answer).
Anyway, thanks Bill!

Cool, I just enabled QuestyCaptcha and added a simple question. We can
add more questions in the future if we want - questions are in
LocalSettings.php
