#### We have some user pages in the main namespace, which this extension won't help. | |||
#### Also, I haven't seen ''they create a (bogus) User: page and a main namespace with the same title, i.e. <code>User:FooBar123</code> and <code>FooBar123</code>''. | |||
#### ''would not stop spammer from posting spam on the User IP page if that is their actual IP.'' | |||
#### We hardly have any bogus user pages. --[[YiFei]] | <small>[[User talk:Zhuyifei1999|talk]]</small> 02:54, 23 June 2013 (UTC) | |||
# [[mw:Extension:Nuke]] — ''Pro:'' allows sysops to delete numerous pages as one - ''Con:'' Not necessary, since those spams are from different usernames and IPs. --[[User:Zhuyifei1999|Zhuyifei1999]] ([[User talk:Zhuyifei1999|talk]]) 21:29, 13 April 2013 (PDT) - so I will strike this if this is correct. | # [[mw:Extension:Nuke]] — ''Pro:'' allows sysops to delete numerous pages as one - ''Con:'' Not necessary, since those spams are from different usernames and IPs. --[[User:Zhuyifei1999|Zhuyifei1999]] ([[User talk:Zhuyifei1999|talk]]) 21:29, 13 April 2013 (PDT) - so I will strike this if this is correct. | ||
##Comment: can't agree [[User:Zhuyifei1999|Zhuyifei1999]] - we have had many instances in the past where certain prolific religious spammers create masses of pages from one user account (though I accept we ''seem'' to have this under control at the moment). Just because we have a particular extension installed, it doesn't mean we have to actually use it!
