Making it all work will require some attention in terms of moderating
this. You might consider having 1 or 2 key, trusted people handle
moderation / approval of new accounts, and also keeping the wiki
cleaned up.<br>

This is what i have do for french wiki.
Disallow wiki user registration,
Use phpbb plug-in,
Allow only some forum groups to login on the wiki (on french wiki the
forum registered user have to demand for being contributor and only then
can login on the wiki)
All wiki systems are spammed by anonymous not only vtiger.

<pre wrap="">Dear Team,
I am the maintainer of the Wiki on vtiger Site.
The idea behind Wiki is community share their knowledge among
themselves and write useful content for the benefit of other users.
Off late, it is misused by some of the spammers.
Keeping this in mind I have locked some of the regularly visited pages
so that people looking for needed info shouldn't affected by spammers.
In fact I have created most of the content and updating periodically
during releases.
*Mike Fedyk:* I think we need moderation for wiki and forum accounts.
Gopal: Currently all guest posts on Forums are moderated. Time to time
I am cleaning unlocked Spam pages. We need some better system, weher
only registered users only can write content. In fact I have seen may
spam users registered in Wiki.
*Mike Fedyk:* Richie, I need access to the locked wiki pages.
Gopal: I will let you know personally, once I unlocked the pages.
Please contact me at skype: sripadag or gopals (at) vtiger.com
*Mike Fedyk:* What wiki are we using now?
All of the wiki help pages are blank. Is it mediawiki? When changing
formatting, all of the mediawiki formatting worked as described in
wikipedia.
Gopal: Yes we are using mediawiki. I have to upgrade to latest version.
*Mike Lieman:* The real question is: Once we revert it, how do we
prevent it?
Gopal: We can allow only registered users to write the content. But
the spammers register as users in Wiki and do all the evils. Even
Wikipedia is not spared.
*vtigercrmFrance:* A plug-in phpbb exist for mediawiki.
This plug-in sync phpbb account with mediawiki account.
If you use it, and only allow edit for registered user, you have no spam.
We use it on vtigercrmfrance.org wiki, we have no spam.
URL : <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/PHPBB/Users_Integration">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/PHPBB/Users_Integration</a>
*Gopal:* Yes, there is a pluign exisits, but it works on 1.5.x and
above. First I have to upgrade our Wiki. I think you have already
implemented in vtigercrmfrance wiki. I will discuss with you in
upgrading the existing WIki setup.
Team, I welcome all your suggestions on improving the quality of Wiki
service, so that we can create a better centralized help system for
the vtiger community.
Best Regards,
Gopal
