It’s much more constructive to UPDATE the wiki (read the first line:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki) than to complain about it…

I’ve now closed the hole the spammers came through (not a security
issue, your passwords and data and private keys and stuff are not
affected) and restored the wiki database from yesterday’s backup to
clean out all the spam nonsense. No legitimate edits were lost; the last
real edit was on the 11th, so restoring from backup hurt nothing here.

Thank you to everyone that reported this, and thank you to those with
write access that tried to keep this under control while we fixed the
problem. We should be good to go now!

Wait, I just created an account on the wiki this morning to revert spam.
Is this why I can’t log in?

Also, the above statement is probably why I complain about the wiki
and not update it myself.On 5/16/14, Ryan C. Gordon wrote:
