In recent times so called spam-bots have targeted Wikis. They add links to other pages to the wiki to raise the Google-rating of the referenced pages. Usually these links are enclosed in div-HTML-tags that make them invisible to the human viewer (but the Google-Bots can see them).

This Wiki takes some precautions to make live for the Spam-Bots difficult (and most of the Spam-Bots are rejected), but occasionally bots succeed in their goal and add spam to the pages. I try to remove all the spam from the pages, but sometimes I fail to do so. If yaou happen to stumble upon div-tags (or other suspicious pieces of HTML-code) please remove them or report them to me.
