:::: The CAPTCHA is showing up on the registration form, but given how simple the question is and that there seems to be only one (!) question, it's just a matter of time until spambots will work around it and human vandals apparently already have. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]] ([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|talk]]) 08:10, 29 April 2013 (PDT)

::::: Jack, is their a way to have control put into our hands to add questions or change them when needed?  Best, [[MarkDilley]]

:::::: They just released another round of security patches, latest versions are MW 1.19.6 and 1.20.5. I was planning to test out 1.20.5, but if need be, I wouldn't mind setting up a test wiki to see how 1.19.6 functions, but the differences in both basically amount to closing a few security holes and not much else, as far as I can tell, and having run both 1.19 and 1.20 versions of MediaWiki, upgrading to 1.20 should be easy and break no features, and all of the extensions installed have working 1.20 equivalents (most of which I have tested) that should be stable in a production enviroment wiki.
