Can't the wiki be setup to require a valid email address to which it
sends a password? Of course such a setup can't completely stop such
spam, but at least it makes the spammer somewhat traceable.

By the way, when you notice such spam you all can edit a previous
revision and put that back. That's what I did last night. The sooner
this gets done the less attractive it gets for the spammer to return.
