I remember back when this idea was being tossed around. It's awesome to see that it's actually been achieved; a thousand thanks to those who put their time into producing this, but a thousand poxes on you for keeping me so interested I browsed until 3am when I have a 10am class! Forgive me if this is something that's already been answered, but couldn't find any prior explanation in the thread: while trying to make an account, I got the error: "Incorrect or missing confirmation code." Is that referring to the captcha? I typed in Talossa, Kingdom of Talossa, Reunionised Talossa, El Regipäts Talossan... just about everything I could think of.

Yes, that is to what it refers. The captcha is working correctly, though; I just tested it. Please try again to create your account - the answer is just the word "Talossa," with no punctuation and only the first letter capitalized.

No idea why my Intertoobs bugged out on my first attempt, but this time around it worked just fine. Account name's "edwardwadas." Thanks for clarifying, Alexandreu!

Minor announcement: I have changed the CAPTCHA slightly, so now the answer is only "talossa," no caps. I have made the question as explicit and easy as I could. Happily, I note that the CAPTCHA and edit restrictions have together ensured that we have had zero spam and zero suspicious edits, since they went into place. Also be sure to check out some of our cool new articles, like on the Lost Archives or the Talossan Émigré Community, as well as the materials at the TalossaWiki Library!

Doing some routine maintenance, I saw that we were getting spam accounts again. They weren't able to edit, but it's annoying to have them create an account or two every day. I have altered the CAPTCHA, however, and that seems to have solved the problem.
Other than that, nothing to report. Everything is working. Still plenty of things that need doing, but we have a truly amazing system and big body of knowledge, which is great. Ego will continue to help: people often fix up their own articles and those of their organizations.

Altering the CAPTCHA let in a different kind of spambot over a few days. Again, they were unable to actually post spam, but still - annoying! I made another fix, though, and the past couple of days confirm that it worked. We are again locked up tight against spam.

I have done a bunch of updates and added all the information I could think of, regarding current circumstances and the recent election. I'm not sure I will be kept in my position as admin, though, so anyone with problems or requests should bring them up immediately so that they can be addressed ASAP.
