I just burned off some energy scouring the wiki userlists for potential
spammers who weren't blocked. I found a handful who had spammed in the
past and been blocked for N months, but were no longer blocked. In all
these cases there was no further activity from the accounts. I just
reblocked them all with an "indefinite" expiration time, to get them off
the table. If anyone objects to this as being too aggressive, or if I
blocked anyone by mistake, I apologize and will fix it if it's brought
to my attention.
I did find some new spammers who had never been blocked. (But didn't
find any spam pages that hadn't already been deleted.)
Then there are all of these accounts, which have never seen any
activity, spam or otherwise. I expect a number of these are spam probes,
but some of them probably aren't. I'm just listing them here to have the
results of my survey recorded somewhere. Other wiki admins might run an
eye down this list and judge if some of them merit being blocked
already, just on account of the username being so implausible.

I've seen activity on alpine infrastructure for these accounts if I
remember right:
Hamletmun
Lstuart
Mjsameth
Plovs
Pweiss
Sbruno
Tcolbert
Wkent
I'm not sure re: the rest, but I think those at least are legitimate accounts.

I don't think it was too agressive. Thank you very much!
