Hello there=2C

Some lists have spam problems too.
I agree with Hakisho: We could have an approval system when adding new cont=
ent to the wiki for new users or users with less than X posts and=2C perhap=
s=2C enable the registrations again. On the down side=2C that will give som=
e more work to clusteradm.

Have a nice day.

Regards=2C
