MediaWiki:Antispam-message

Your action was caught by the anti-spam measure filter.

This happened because your edit or new page was too long, and you're not an e-mail confirmed user (or an administrator).

What can I do about this?

You can register an account on ShoutWiki and confirm your e-mail, then your page creation and editing capabilities become unlimited.

Why is this a thing?

We've been getting a lot of spam bots lately, both unregistered and registered, and just blocking posts with a number of hyperlinks was not enough as the bots often didn't use links at all.
This is a compromise to let small edits happen without the fuss of registration while trying to prevent large walls of spam. We apologise for the inconvenience.
