Hi everyone -- we need your help.

In the last few days, we've noticed a big increase in the number of
spammy changes being made to the Podcamp Toronoto wiki. Because
anyone can edit the site, some unscrupulous folks are apparently
putting in unrelated links or just messing around by registering fake
names and the like.

If you see an entry you believe is spam and you're comfortable doing
wiki editing, please feel free to remove the entry, or revert the wiki
to an earlier version without the spam. In the worst case, if any
legitimate data is removed, it can be recovered from the history of
edits.

We appreciate your assistance in keeping our wiki clean!
- J.

The main ones to look out for are the Manchester United soccer players - Dimitar Berbatov, Cristiano Ronaldo, etc.

I'll check in soon and help clean up :)

Right, thanks Danny.

There were also some junk links appearing as well, if anyone spots
those please clean them up as well if you have the time and know-how.
