Wiki users and spam

[Wil Alvarez]

Hi people,

Yesterday I was checking our wiki to add Eduard Lucena and I noticed that for some reason we have +45000 registered users, probably as consequence of spam bots, given that I don't have the time neither the patience to check each of the +45000 records I need your help.

The only thing you need to do is answer this mail with your username if you had wiki user. If you know that you had an account once upon a time but don't remember the username, your mail could work too.

I'll be performing this deletion on friday July 12th, users specified as answer of this mail will be kept on database, the others will disappear.

Thanks for your collaboration

Hi all,

This is a reminder. Today I will be deleting all the wiki users registered except those that be specified here. If you had a wiki account once and don't want to lose it, tell me your username (or your email) and I'll keep it.

Best regards

People,

I've performed the scheduled deletion of all the fake users on the wiki and I've installed a captcha to avoid spam registration. Please contact me if you had an account and have issues to login into the site.

Best regards

I still don't have my account.

:P

Eduard,

Your account was created a long time ago and AFAIR I even changed your password because you forgot it. I've double checked and the user exists in the wiki database:

x3mboy Eduard Lucena eduard...@gmail.com user

Try to login or look for the email I sent you with the credentials.

Best,

Oh, sorry for that. I want to tell, whe wikipedia article is outdated, i think that even is about Turpial v1.7

I can't fix it because my account is locked and the recovery link never reach my email address. I can do it like a guess but i don't like to use this way.

Br,

Eduard Lucena

Ok. Let me know if you can't login and I will reset the password again for you.
