: Thoughts from wiki page making meeting: restricting creating links (e.g. account creation necessary), make links not appear in search engines to remove incentives for spam, it is important to create policies that can be cited, so that spam deletion does not seem arbitrary (what is trash, what is not trash?); People who create/edit a page are on the watchlist, so they get notifications if somebody makes changes - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 16:24, 9 November 2021 (UTC) | : Thoughts from wiki page making meeting: restricting creating links (e.g. account creation necessary), make links not appear in search engines to remove incentives for spam, it is important to create policies that can be cited, so that spam deletion does not seem arbitrary (what is trash, what is not trash?); People who create/edit a page are on the watchlist, so they get notifications if somebody makes changes - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 16:24, 9 November 2021 (UTC) | ||

In the past day or two, we did get our first spam; [[User:Gedankensteucke|Gedankensteucke]] realized it was due to lacking a captcha on account creation (and accounts don't require captchas), so that was added too. We learned how to clean up spam, and should document instructions for that stuff. |
