By default, anonymous users cannot edit the wiki. This plugin allows
anonymous web users, who have not signed in, to edit any page in the wiki
by default.
-The plugin also has a configuration setting, `anonok_pages`. This
-[[PageSpec]] can be used to allow anonymous editing of matching pages.
+Please think twice before enabling this plugin. If your wiki is accessible
+to the internet, it *will* be subject to spamming if this plugin is
+enabled. Such spam is not only a pain to deal with, but it bloats the
+revision control history of your wiki.
