The page is gone, and I have changed the registration process so that new
users will have _no_ edit rights by default, until the account is manually
added to the "users" group by Niki or myself.
That was unfortunately the only way to fight spammers who create accounts
on our Wiki.
The spammer account itself has been locked. It was created from a Chinese
IP.
