The JhuAcmWiki hosts our LocalBadContent file. When we get comment spam that gets through the Spam URI Realtime Blocklist, and through the MoinMoin BadContent filters, and through the MT-Blacklist filters, it sucks and makes me want to cry.
I mean, we add regular expressions to the JhuAcmWiki LocalBadContent page. LocalBadContent is domains that can't be linked-to on JhuAcmWiki. Now anonymous comments on Hopkins Weblogs are filtered through that list as well.
Hopefully this should end the spam deluge (okay, three spams) got over the past day.
I should probably write a FAQ entry about our comment spam solutions.
