I'll reply onlist, as I have incorporated some further changes. Thanks a 
lot for letting me know about the issue!

It seems we are not the only one affected, as I have received feedback 
from other open source projects stating similar - a new wave of spam 
seems to have arrived for wikis.

What I have done now is:

- extended the list of questions to have both the old and the new ones
- enabled the captcha for editing pages, creating pages, and adding 
external URLs to pages
- disabled those captchas for autopromoted users
- autopromoted users are those having at least 10 edits *and* at the 
same time have been existing longer than five days

While this will probably not disable account creation, it hopefully 
rasies the barrier for spamming. Can you have a look if this helps, and 
give me a ping in a few days?

Thanks,
Florian
