IP addresses for spam can be blocked for 3-6 months. If a spam bot keeps recreating the same page, the deleted page can be protected for 3-6 months which will prevent its recreation by new and anonymous users.
IP addresses for spam can be blocked for 3-6 months:
* [[:Template:Captcha response]] - page that contains the anti-spam response
* Related template: [[:Template:Captcha response]] - page that contains the anti-spam response
* [[MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist]] - blacklist spam websites to prevent reinsertion of spam links
* [[MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist]] - blacklist spam websites to prevent reinsertion of spam links
If a spam bot keeps recreating a certain page:
* Protect the page for a few months from IP and new users (if its predicted that genuine new and IP users will most likely not edit the page)
* Delete the page
The protection will still be in place even though the page has been deleted.
