Thanks Martin.
Yes, everything is ok now.
Now someone has to choose what people have the privileges to edit it. It has to
be updated, from time to time, you know. Tonight, I wanted to update the links
on the mainpage to the openSUSE Weekly News but I couldn't. I have been
updating the main page since December 2007. I don't know if I am the right
person to do it, but if it is not me, someone has to do it.
Regards,
Javier

Hello everyone,

I have been editing, cleaning and translating es.opensuse.org mainly and a
few pages of pt.opensuse.org and en.opensuse.org for two years. Recently,
one person has been spamming es.opensuse.org with links to his website.
They were openSUSE-related articles, but, however I think that the homepage
is not for that; it is not a news site. I had to clean up the homepage
several times... this guy messed it up a lot and it gave a bad image of the
openSUSE project. I told him not to do it again, that he could email the
openSUSE Weekly News editors. I think that it is a better place to have
links to articles and stuff, and besides, everybody would be happier :-) I
don't want to see this happen again, so maybe we could lock down
es.opensuse.org and allow some people to edit it. For some reason,
es.opensuse.org is still editable by anyone who has an account.

It's protected now, wonder why it not was. I protect usually the mainpage on
all wikis.

I didn't had time to look into the issue right now, so i hope everything is
ok ..
