| subject | Better input validation fro bug contributions | |||
| code | ||||
| what happened | It seems that the recent wave of spam contributions can be avoided with better input validation. I think it is r\ easonable to require that at least some fields are non-empty. |
|||
| what expected | Reject bug contributions with empty project/subject/contributor/etc. fields. The drop-down boxes should be empty by default and thus force the ocntributor to make a selection and not leave default value. BYW, the spam somehow manages to leaves these empty. | |||

| Also, the "delete contrib" link should ask for confirmation first. A pop up window will be best. I haven't yet deleted a contrib by mistake but it can very well happen. |

| ok - i added a silly mathematical question, as most of these spam seems to come from bots and are not written specifically for one site. I also added a javscript confirmation dialog when deleting contribs. |
