Hi Shlomi,

Thanks for reporting :)

You could ping Paul or Jacinta on #Perlnet (irc) as they are the main custodians.

I also have perms to rollback .. doing so now.

The Perlnet wiki has gone unloved for a while.  Was originally left relatively open and captcha-free to encourage contributions.  Perhaps could be locked down a bit more to avoid given the spambots free googlejuice.

Cheers,
Stephen
