Well banning IPs wouldn't help with the current crop of wiki spam as currently all that drug cr** is added at the same time from multiple machines (with dynamic IPs). From the looks it is a synchronized distributed action, where they start at one wiki page and pass the links to computers at other IP addresses and all of the edits are done at roughly the same time. Since I have very limited access at the moment I simply blocked usage of the names they try to use (the wiki requires a name [any will do] but the ones spamming the fdos wiki seem to reuse the same set).
