Project: SpamMitigation
What (summary)
CAPTCHA required to add a spam titled page, or to add spam words to a page.
Why this is important
Currently links to sites that contain a word like "a-mbien" are rejected by the spam filter. There are many legitimate words that contain spam filtered words. For example the site in question contains the word a-mbiente which means "environment" in Spanish. But because the word a-mbien is contained in the word a-mbiente, it is rejected. Correcting this will support our user base.
DoneDone
- Whenever anyone creates a page with a title that triggers the spam filter, or adds words to a page that trigger the spam filter they must successfully fill in a CAPTCHA in order to save.
- Not asked for a CAPTCHA if you are saving a page and you didn't add (or move) spam words (the page may contain some SPAM words that you didn't add to the page)
Steps to get to DoneDone
Problems Being Addressed
- Page names trip the filter, including things like v-iagra.com
- Anonymous can edit pages that contain flagged words (logged in can't)
