doc/todo/require_CAPTCHA_to_edit.mdwn



I don't necessarily trust all OpenID providers to stop bots.  I note that ikiwiki allows [[banned_users]], and that there are other todos such as [[todo/openid_user_filtering]] that would extend this.  However, it might be nice to have a CAPTCHA system.
I imagine a plugin that modifies the login screen to use http://recaptcha.net/.  You would then be required to fill in the captcha as well as log in in the normal way.

I hate CAPTCHAs with a passion. Someone else is welcome to write such a
plugin.
If spam via openid (which I have never ever seen yet) becomes
a problem, a provider whitelist/blacklist seems like a much nicer
solution than a CAPTCHA. --[[Joey]]
