Bitcoin is decentralized. Bitcoin Wikis are not.
fossil is a decentralized version control system and has a built-in wiki. just saying
No. Keep all the spam to here pls
It's not about spamming, it's that MtGox is down.You can't make the payment anymore.
Code:
$btc_addr = BitcoinPayment::mtgox_query('2/money/bitcoin/address', array('ipn' => $url, 'description' => 'WP#'.$wgUser->getId()));
^^ obsly down.

cedivad nailed it here. I really wouldn't mind a new wiki that doesn't have this restriction, heck, if we got all of Bitcointalk involved with the wiki, or even a large portion of it, the spamming that the wiki is trying to prevent wouldn't be an issue because it'd be removed pretty quickly.
That said, if the amount they're requiring people to send to the API is pretty small, I'm not totally opposed to that too in order to keep it clean of spam. I'm just saying that the current API needs to be replaced to point to some place that's not down. Frankly, I wouldn't want it go to MtGox even if it does get up and running again, that exchange is just crap.
Theymos should have bought it.

I am pretty sure the wiki has changed hands, so if that person wants to add a payment system I would donate my robust api system when it launch to help fixing the payment mod.
They have a whitelist system that only allows people to edit the wiki if they send a small amount of bitcoins to an address.
Which makes it a censored centralized system. The very opposite of what Bitcoin is supposed to be.
I really think we need a new wiki.
A nice decentralized one

If anyone here has editing privileges over at http://en.bitcoin.it, your help is needed. Especially if you help run that site. They have a whitelist system that only allows people to edit the wiki if they send a small amount of bitcoins to an address. Which is fine as a system for keeping out spam, except that the system uses an MtGox API. Obviously, we all know now that MtGox is toast.
So, ideally, someone will be able to either: a) remove this restriction, or b) point it to someplace like Coinbase that isn't down and has working APIs to replace the API that it's using now. Can anyone help with this so that wiki will be editable to new users again?
