Tech update: We've been having some recurring issue where our localisation cache keeps crapping out, but I've been using my shell access to update it every time I notice a problem, let me know if I fall asleep at the wheel.
Also, made a change to our spam filter: It was too harsh and punishing innocent contributors, so I modified it where it's possible for some spammers to get through, but only the ones who post nonsensical word salad posts (all spammers hope to post actual links, they are denied doing that, so we still block 99.99% of all spam), so for those with admin power, delete them and block the spammers, but clean out the summary column for the deleted page to deny leaving a copy of the spam article in the history.
As for anyone making legit edits, look it over, and if looks good, promote them to autopatrolled/confirmed so they can dodge the captcha and spam filterts.
