That's exactly why I think that very open Wikis are doomed to death nowadays, given the criminal energy of spammers.

I don't think the problem is as serious as you make it look. Any registered wikizen can restore any page to a known good state with just two clicks (info icon, then "restore"). Spammers use scripts these days on wikis, and spam scripts seem to exist for only a few wiki engines at the moment. I suspect they stop working if we make some small changes (like renaming the "edit" action) to MoinMoin. The proposed all-encompassing solution to WikiSpam is to integrate a captcha into the edit page, which would keep scripts out for good. Some future version of MoinMoin will probably include something like that. In short, I think the hawiki is still quite useable and won't drown in unhandled spam anytime soon.
