I noticed the same problem, but I admit that the first time I posted something on perlmonks I created some empty nodes too: I never understood how that happened. Anyway I'm almost sure there is a way to recognize empty nodes, so why not writing a nice perl script which may run daily and delete all these useless nodes? In this way everybody is still allowed to post, but if someone post empty nodes - either for mistake or on purpose :( - these are soon removed.

Yes, they should be allowed to post, but perhaps their posts
should not appear until they are approved by a moderator somehow.
On a similar note, I notice that a lot of AM create empty
nodes with a title of "A HREF="/index.pl?node_id=XXX" etc.
Is this a bug, perhaps? Were they really trying to post
something? | [reply] |
