Loqi [http://twitter.com/skipchris] Mad: hReview-aggregate *requires* that your reviews have a ‘score’ (i.e. 2-out-of-5, 50%). No pony for you if you don’t enforce scoring.

#
aaronpk tantek: have you considered installing a recaptcha for user signups or posts that contain links?
#
tantek I think there is a captcha for those
#
tantek especially for new accounts
#
tantek but it doesn't stop manual spammers
#
tantek they're still humans after all ;)
#
barnabywalters tantek: perhaps ditching the captcha in favour of a random question about microformats would be more effective ;)
#
neuro` barnabywalters: that would not prevent spammers either.
#
barnabywalters probably not, but it might put some of them off
#
neuro` Spam, like viruses, is a neverending game of hide and seek where the antispam is always trying to catch up.

#
barnabywalters I know. I was joking — it just seems crazy that someone would manually spam random wikis
#
singpolyma CAPTCHA's only sort of work. I've found the "hidden form field which must be left blank" foils just as many robots, and somewhat fewer humans
#
tantek barnabywalters - microformats.org has a very high pagerank which provides incentive for manual spamming by many self-proclaimed "SEO" experts/consultants.
#
singpolyma though I have not done sufficient science on that
#
singpolyma tantek: do we have nofollow on our wikilinks, thought? thus, making it not interesting for PageRank?
#
barnabywalters Do they not notice that their spam gets deleted pretty quickly though? That would put me off.
#
tantek singpolyma - pretty sure we do
#
tantek barnabywalters - I'm fairly sure it's different people each time
#
tantek I'd be in favor of some sort of semantic HTML captcha
#
tantek but yes, asking questions about microformats is a great idea
#
tantek it's like, before you can edit, you have to show that you've read it :)
