Greetings. As noted recently, Fedora Infrastructure has had a large number of spam accounts and edits over the last few months. Our Basset application[1] has been great at detecting the accounts and spam and blocking or deleting them. However, this process has caused some confusion as spam wiki edits appear and are deleted. In addition, the results aren't accurate enough to avoid Infrastructure or other teams having to do additional cleanup manually, which isn't sustainable long-term. In order to prevent these spam wiki edits entirely, we have changed the wiki to require a user to have both signed the FPCA and be in at least one additional group (CLA+1). This may require some workflow changes for a few groups such as Fedora Ambassadors. New contributors without any group membership will need a path to membership without wiki edits. Sorry for any inconvience this may cause, but the wiki should be a quieter and cleaner place for this change. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to open a Fedora Infrastructure ticket[2] or discuss with the team in our IRC channel #fedora-admin. Thank you.
