I was feeling plucky and so implemented reCAPTCHA on wiki.erights.org.

Turned out to be fairly easy and quick, because they've got a MediaWiki 
plugin already.  As a consequence, I've re-enabled anonymous edits. 
Let's see if that ends up being a problem.

I've done some basic testing, and everything seems to be fine.

Now I need to go through and delete all those bogus accounts.
