Give it up already! It is NOT possible to have an open website/forum on the internet and not have it used in an undesirable fashion. Like a freshly painted wall in Harlem, open wikis WILL be defaced or spammed! There is no "solution", without restricting access.
Give up on the Wiki concept. The open access to editors was a bad idea and still is. Even Wikipedia is restricting access to certain pages and open pages are checked and reverted frequently because they are regularly defaced.
Just be glad that it is only spam. Imagine if it was goatse like the <a href="http://news.webindia123.com/news/showdetails.asp?id=90406&n_date=20050622&cat=Entertainment" title="webindia123.com">LA Times</a webindia123.com> Wiki experienced.
