The wiki has "edit" links if I login as guest, but not if I login as heatsink. Should be fixed now.
Is that also because of the spam issue? Yup; you weren't in the developer group, but you are now.
It seems silly that one can report bugs as guest, but not through a user account (I guess it's just because of how the spammers operate). Should other people like me ask to be added to the developer group? (username "Isaac Dupree"). For now I'll just report as guest.
It is silly, yes. The spammers are clever enough to register accounts, but not clever enough to read our pages to find out the guest password. Ideally we'd put a captcha-type thing on the register page, or even just a password you have to enter to register an account. But that needs someone to hack the Trac account manager plugin, and we plan to upgrade to Trac 0.10 anyway so we don't want to put too much effort in here (although offers of help would be most welcome :-).
