ConfirmEdit

ConfirmEdit extension for MediaWiki

This extension provides various CAPTCHA tools for MediaWiki, to allow for protection against spambots and other automated tools.

For more information, see the extension homepage at: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit

Overview

The following modules are included in ConfirmEdit:

  • SimpleCaptcha - users have to solve an arithmetic math problem
  • MathCaptcha - users have to solve a math problem that's displayed as an image
  • FancyCaptcha - users have to identify a series of characters, displayed in a stylized way
  • QuestyCaptcha - users have to answer a question, out of a series of questions defined by the administrator(s)
  • ReCaptcha - users have to identify a series of characters, either visually or audially, from a widget provided by the reCAPTCHA service. This plugin is depreacted since MediaWiki 1.28! Please switch to the new ReCaptchaNoCaptcha version of ReCaptcha (which is supported by Google and ConfirmEdit).
  • ReCaptchaNoCaptcha - users have to solve different types of visually or audially tasks.

/**
 * Actions which can trigger a captcha
 *
 * If the 'edit' trigger is on, *every* edit will trigger the captcha.
 * This may be useful for protecting against vandalbot attacks.
 *
 * If using the default 'addurl' trigger, the captcha will trigger on
 * edits that include URLs that aren't in the current version of the page.
 * This should catch automated linkspammers without annoying people when
 * they make more typical edits.
 *
 * The captcha code should not use $wgCaptchaTriggers, but CaptchaTriggers()
 * which also takes into account per namespace triggering.

 *
 * 'CaptchaSessionStore' uses PHP's session storage, which is cookie-based
