OK, cool, good thing I checked! What do people think of changing the template to use rel=nofollow?

I don't see much harm in letting people sign up, but the first indication they're mucking with cookbook content and they get the boot, IMO.

Jonathan Bartlett is a valid user - he's the author of this article on
linked lists in C and Scheme:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-listproc/
He also wrote a book called "Programming from the Ground Up".

Of course, he's probably getting some Google benefit from that link, but I
don't think that's a problem.

I agree the others are spammers. To triple-check, I googled for RonRen,
which shows up on many other TWiki sites. (Makes me wonder if there's some
way to use Google to automatically detect spammers, the way they use Google
to find sites to attack...)

I'll delete them tonight if no-one beats me to it.

Anton
