I looked through the recent changes on the Wiki and they're nearly all new accounts posting random bullshit with links you probably shouldn't click. Thought I'd let you know so you can improve the way you create accounts on the wiki. I myself don't really want to bother creating one, but I will read it.

I normally delete most of all the spam with in 24 hours, but I am on vacation.

I will delete it all when I get home in 3 weeks. Deleting Wiki spam from my phone is just really annoying.

On the other hand. I'll ask Oops if he can change the Wiki account creation again. A simple question like "What game is SC2Mafia a mod/map for?" may work wonders, but I don't know how that kinda stuff work.

If only you had someone as active on the wiki as you, that could delete articles...

It is only really bad if you use the Special:RecentChanges (http://wiki.sc2mafia.com/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges) page a lot and maybe the Special:Random (http://wiki.sc2mafia.com/index.php?title=Special:Random) if you are unlucky.

So please just leave it alone and I'll clean it all later.

By the way read this; Category:Spam (http://wiki.sc2mafia.com/index.php?title=Category:Spam), if you really wanna help, blanking out the pages only means more work for me. Mostly just leave the spam alone till i deal with it, but if you find some that i missed, flag it with the tag on that page.
