[seqfan] Re: OEIS attacked by spammers again

[Joerg Arndt]

These Arschgeburten will (at the moment) very likely only try to leave
their trash in the Wiki.  Sequence editing is to tedious for them.

If I can get a list of newly created pages in the Wiki via Email
I'll try to take care of things (other can help; thanks).

Best regards,   jj
