I think that I have logged in using openid! But I think the login page
could use some adjustemnts.
Perhaps the openid stuff should be seperate, unless I was supposed to login
as well. Also have I just created an account on this wiki as well?

The idea is that you fill in one or the other but not both. If it's
switched to only openid, it's much clearer, since the
username/password/register stuff disappears from the form.
If both login methods are enabled, it's limited to using one form for
both though...
By signing in with openid, you have created an account on the wiki; you
can configure it to eg, subscribe your email address to changes to pages.

How to ban an IP address?
There is a way to ban ikiwiki users, but how to ban an IP address?
For example if a bitchy anonymous is bombing our poll. I can use
only Apache/iptables rules for this? Maybe it's related to
[[ACL|todo/ACL]] request? --[[Paweł|ptecza]]

Well, the polls are not something I would worry about much. I do plan to
add_IP_range_banning, although I expect to wait until
there's a demonstrated need. --[[Joey]]


Heh, do you really want a lot of spam of me? ;)


It was only an example of banning reason. Recently I've read about
problems of Wikipedia with the vandals from Qatar. They demolished
Qatar Wikipedia pages and the admins of Wikipedia had to ban all
IP addresses of that country (fortunately Qatar has only one ISP).
