    My personal web pages split equalizer (zoranskoda) and test page (zoranskoda) have been spammed by a political anarchist from 72.182.43.120, signed as Anonymous coward.

    By the way, to link to your personal web you need to prefix by

     zoranskoda:

    e.g.

      [[zoranskoda:test page]]

    gives the link to the page that you mean: test page (zoranskoda)

    Thanks, I somehow forgot to prefix it. Corrected.

    Regarding that “spam” advice: curious. The style seems vaguely familiar.

    Yes, it also occured to me. BTW myself wrote in Oct 2010

    I am afraid depending on some third party site which may stop working or may charge in future or may limit the amount of displays (currently they allow 5 thousand formula displays per day per site. nlab is becoming a big site and if we start using codecogs regularly it may be a problem.

    Also may change in future…

    Well, possibly Jacques just forgot to fill in his name (since he doesn’t edit the nLab much, it’s not implausible). Though I am not sure why he didn’t just leave a comment at the relevant thread where this was already being discussed.

    adeelkh Are you seriously suggesting that Jacques wrote that on Zoran’s web? I find that highly unlikely. (Moreover, the IP address isn’t his.)

    Typing the IP address into Google yields his name (see the bottom of http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/wiki/instiki/show/HomePage, for example). I have to doubt that he was really trying to be anonymous though.

    Ha! And there was me using xhost. Should’ve just googled it.

    By the way, this means that also many of the formulas on André Joyals “CatLab” pages are now broken, such as on his page on factorization systems.

    Eventually somebody with some energy should go through these and somehow fix it. Of course it would be good to know a sustainable way to fix it…
