Yes, I am trying to fix it but the spam users are creating new pages faster than I can fix it. I am concerned we are going to need to revert the entire wiki to an earlier state.
I see problem users Johnthe and Sanjaypatel but the fixes are geting re-spammed so quickly I am afraid it is some automated attack that will be difficult to clean up. The other problem is that they are _moving_ pages, meaning we have to move them back as well as undo the edits.
I am going to give up trying to undo this until we can get a better handle on a process of cleanup.
Maybe there's a way to pu the wiki on a read-only mode for everyone except some of us. That would help stopping them while we fix it. But I don't know if such a mode exists. +
