Feature request:
is it possible to install a captcha system to avoid pdpedia being spammed so outrageously ?

hmm, the last 10days on pdpedia shows 3 different types of activity:
- 3 active contributions
- 3 spam removals
- 48 spams
luckily only "active (development status)â" and "Talk:Main Pageâ" were
hit.
to whom should pdpedia related bugs be assigned?

Any admin can easily delete those junk posts with the 'delete' tab and
also protect problem pages. A captcha might help, I haven't seen one for
mediawiki before.
Check the "recent changes" log now, and you'll see the spam is gone. :)

i agree that pdpedia has lost lots of it's initial charme just because of
this: according to the "recent changes" page, of the last 376 changes 361
were garbage.
luckily most of these garbage changes are targeted on few pages
(Template:vanilla has 257 changes; Template:jmmmp has 99 changes)
