Of course if we can link forum accounts that’s in any case a bonus.
If we enforce logging in, that might help with spam control,
but if people feel that reverting and allowing of anonymous edits is a better approach then we can maintain it this way.
nope.
forcing logins doesn’t work at all.
spammers will happily obey and create accounts, before they spam.
instead,
you should force image captcha solving to post any content containing links.
that’s what works for mediawiki.
( note that math captcha also does not work.)
reCaptcha may well be just the right service for this..
