New Wiki Spam attack method

It seems that they have a bot which auto updates over 500 pages of links, this is so the original content is overwritten. (Wiki doesn't save more than 500 pages of edits) The bot was writing to my page as I was correcting it, and it is hitting the page once every few mins. One way to assist killing it off, is to ensure that you have nofollow enabled on all your Wiki pages (so while the link might trap your customers, at least it doesn't count towards their page rank. -- ADSLgeek.com

Spam help

Recently my wiki got spammed. I tried some google searches and couldn't find the exact problem. The problem is basically when someone searches my site on google, some of the results link to spam, but if you go to the actual page there is no spam. Searching site:www.koreanwikiproject.com on google with give a lot of "Buy cialis" links, and recently I edited a page, and the next page was spam, click reload made it go away. Could anyone help me identify this problem or how to fix it? Any help would be appreciated, thank you --Bluesoju 00:36, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
