An admin can mass-cleanup the spam by using Special:Nuke on suspicious users from Special:ActiveUsers, as well as suspicious edits from Special:RecentChanges.
In the light of this, I would like to nominate User:Beaming and User:Cb for admin rights.
Skilgannon's email can be found in Contacts.
More discussion on this attack can be found here and here.
More suggestions:
- IP-ban these bozos.
- Do some of the stuff mentioned here.
- Merge all spam accounts together so we can keep track of them more easily.
- Delete/hide spam entries from Special:RecentChanges.
I also nominating User:MultiplyByZer0 because of active presence at wiki and a lot of clean up effort coming from this user.
