EDIT: also, you still haven't answered my question.

It was answered. I was just suggesting that an additional method was used to spam the wiki
Drunken Watermelon:
Isn't the wiki locked so only registered and approved users can edit it?
curriegrad2004:
No. Apparently not. Don't think it will be locked.

Tor was my first thought as well, when I saw what had happened, actually.

No, every now and then anonymous contributions are made.

Edit: I did my best to restore the idolmaster(X-Box 360) one.

Thank you for your effort, blake. Though to be honest, undoing changes in the wiki does not mean to edit the pages again, but rather removing the bad versions and revert back to the latest good version. Moreover, the first thing you did was to remove three contributions that h4ataraxia had done recently. These were quotes taken from the official 765 Production homepage. Still, it's fixed now, so no big deal. ~
I'm sorry I didn't mention any of this more clearly, and I would have started removing the bad page versions except it was so late when I noticed what had happened (3:30 AM).
EDIT: Wiki should be back to normal, except for a few empty junk pages, that the admins will have to remove.
RoninatorMarx:
Oh yeah. I forgot to say this a while back: Can't Wiki mods do the banning instead?
Another note: I know a guy who can set up a way to stop proxy users from even entering a forum, required that someone hosts it in their PC. Dunno if that can be used in a wiki though.
