Wiki gone Wonkers

There seems to be either a run-away process or coordinated attack on the Wiki page "Using the Forum" (http://wiki.logos.com/Using_the_Forum) by user "Anonymous." The same edit cycle is repeating itself several times an hour each hour. All it does is delete "3" and then add "3" over and over again. Below is an entry from my Google Reader. You can see the pattern on the History page: http://wiki.logos.com/history.aspx?id=e6399b06-95c1-4002-9616-502b61ef1c74.

You are right!

The last real revision should be 60. This hacker or bot has been doing this since 8 days ago. I also noticed that it has been doing this to other wiki pages (e.g. L4 Mac).

Hopefully Logos will fix this and block this person from doing so in the future.

Hi gents

Just to let you know that Logos is aware of this and addressing it.

Logos had left anonymous access on when they moved the wiki to a new server. KS4J notified them about it last week, and I believe that anonymous access is no longer is available. (It wasn't when I tried it just now, but the fact that there were changes today makes me wonder.)

The sandbox changes were mine. I've since fixed the issue on wiki.logos.com and several other wikis. Thanks for letting us know about the problem.
