I'm assuming you've read this page

What methods can be surely applied to NixOS wiki?

* I think of blocking spam IPs first.
(http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SpamBlacklist,
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Anti-spam_features#Filtering_by_user_agent,
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Anti-spam_features#IP_address_blacklists)
* Than rename some default actions (like sumbit -> submit2).
* Use extensions to block page creation on some criteria (for example,
it contains 'my site' keyword)
