i think it's justified as a (temporary?) solution to all the crap
everybody suddenly decides to tell the world the second they find a
world-writable wiki.
of all the pages that were created in the wiki (see the what's new
page) only about 20% were plan9 related. watching for them and
deleting them would be a task as hard as moderating 9fans :)
i spent a good hour today removing all the '3y3 0wnz0rz j00' text from
all pages that had nothing to do with plan9 (i have no permission to
delete them, so i simply replaced the offending text with links to the
plan9 homepage)... it wasn't pretty, must say :)
if you want something added to the wiki send the text to someone
running plan9. you can even send it to me if you like -- adding it to
the wiki will take considerably less time than removing extraneous
pages had it been left open.
