The spammer strikes back...

At least the spam attack slowed down, so I didn't re-add the IP block and hope the best ;-) They have to learn, that they can't do so much in the read-only mode. We have to wait now.

Oh, and the spammers managed to completely kill the history of Help:Editing (by moving it around and then overwriting it with another move?), so I just "enjoyed" restoring it from google cache :-/

If they can damage something, we should ask our admins, whether they can use a dump and backup of the time before this attack. We can look, how many normal contributions were added in the last days. If it wouldn't be so much (or anything), we can use all the data of the time before spaming. You saied, it would be read-only now. So we can use backups, if something would be damaged.

Regards,

Christian Boltz
