New users with strange names

Four new users have been created within the last week with similarly weird, code-like names:

Gj0Vxn, LyuZsg, TycZzv, and CpaPqe. Seems kind of fishy to me. Is it possible to run an IP check on them and/or otherwise see whether they're legit or not? None have performed any edits yet. --Farman 16:51, 8 July 2007 (CDT)

If it becomes a problem we can utilize the captcha extension, and make new users enter a string. And/Or we can utilize SpamBlackList which protects us from malicious edits. --Callek 21:14, 8 July 2007 (CDT)

I noticed that too. We'll watch them.--Naeya ^(talk) 22:08, 8 July 2007 (CDT)

IG Secrets

I think it would be useful to state the policy on revealing in-game secrets in articles. Please correct me or add to this if I am wrong.

• Posting in-game secrets or solutions to quests is discouraged on a main article page, as this might reveal the information to someone who came to the article seeking general info only.

A good way to segregate info on secrets is to make a sub-page off the main article. --Farman 16:28, 20 October 2007 (CDT)

How does one make a sub-page? --Kraelyst 18:04, 20 October 2007 (CDT)
