Spam is gone, thanks to all who helped remove it.

Apparently the gNewSense wiki isn't alone- spam is a problem on a lot of
MoinMoin wikis at the moment. This thread is revelant:

It looks like the MoinMoin developers will introduce email account
activation soon as well. A patch for 1.9.7 was uploaded to their wiki
yesterday (but might not be properly tested):

It appears the Debian wiki is using this patch at the moment.
