The new measures have borked Wiki to some extent. Whenever I try to do a 
change (even when I'm logged in), I'm seeing two annoying things:

1. Asks me to do a math problem -- seems weird that when I'm logged in 
I'd be forced to do this

then

2. Telling me I have to do an edit summary (no clue what that is), if I 
don't I get this error
*Reminder:* You have not provided an edit summary. If you click "Save 
page" again, your edit will be saved without one.

But when I push save again it comes up with an error and brings me back 
to step 1 (asking for a math problem).

Is this related to the above stuff mentioned? Thanks in advance, I can't 
do any wiki edits as of now

Joel
