The amount of wiki spam I am dealing with now is getting ridiculous. On average I am being hit with 6-8 script attacks per day.
I run a wiki on my site mostly as a proof-of-concept. I publicly post speaking dates and resources from my seminars plus a few other things. There is quite of a bit of behind-the-scenes stuff I use for clients or personal matters as well.
I know these are script-based attacks since they always target the same pages that are common to PMWiki, the wiki software I run. I am notified each time a change is made so I can go clean things up, but it's gotten to the point that it's not worth the effort. I modified the wiki to remove the pages from public display, but the script attacks keep coming.
What is funny is that it looks like a little war between the pill and porn purveyors, constantly over-writing each other's spam.
