Hagan Fox created a version of Blocklist2 which he called "cmsb-blocklist.php".
I have installed it and found it very (no, not very, extremely)
effective. I don't see any need for the "steroids" approach, and I am
one of those people with a tiny overworked server who is quite
willing to use whatever works and nothing more.
I found that the single most effective way of blocking wikispam was
by adding URL fragments to the blocklist, and they were handled quite
well by Blocklist2.
