WOW. Thanks for the tip. I actually am setting up this wiki for the
first time on a remotely hosted server that is actually open to the
public. I recon I have a lot to learn. I had no idea there was all the
crap that was put on the wiki by spammers. I've cleared off several
thousand of the inactive accounts, BUT I still have several thousand of
them that are still active that need to  be removed. I also set up a
series of verifications that require e-mail and captchas to get involved
as an editor and to join the wiki as a member. I will refine these as
best as I can before I reopen it to membership.
Any other pointers are really appreciated.

Thanks 
John
