Wiki is Weak-y

Wiki spam is worse the email spam.

Look at this picture: I receive about more than 10 Wiki author request within every minute and it never stopped since two days ago.

The page they created contains link to their porn website. That means, they are creating hundreds of garbage pages on my server, day and night, linking to their site - until the disk on my site are used up.

This is the weakest point of Wiki, something others can easily spam...

Yes a wiki requires maintenance. If you have a large enough community base it can work very well, take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/ for example, an online encyclopedia project using a wiki.

I think this also goes for blog.
One website added trackback to every blog entry of mine.
