I rather like mine own robots.txt (http://www.icebubble.org/robots.txt).
As members of the "alternative OS" crowd, you may appreciate its design.

Incidentally, the wiki employs a very good anti-spam technology: edits
to it can only be made over 9P.  (The HTTP edit mechanism isn't
enabled.)  The wiki's lack of spidering also means it wouldn't be a very
valuable target even IF spambots could edit it over HTTP.
