We get a lot of new user accounts every day in our wiki. I'd rather they
didn't stick around if they're just being generated by spam bots.
I'm tossing around writing a script that would run via cron every night
and clean up the wiki database.
For now, that would be:
* delete user accounts that haven't email confirmed in 2 weeks
I hunted around for such a thing, but didn't find anything. I did find this:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Deleteuser
I can use that to figure out how to write this script, but by itself, it
doesn't solve my need.
Does anyone else know of such a Mediawiki extension/script?
