Has the Ragan Communications Wiki been hacked?

I have been looking at Ragan's new Wiki.

It came as a surprise to find that its 'Community Portal' is loaded with 'adult' content.

According to the site, this wiki is: 'Launched in conjunction with our 10th Annual Strategic Public Relations Conference, PR Rehab is a place for the PR community to have a frank conversation about what ails PR'.

This site says 'there are many wonderful things happening in the world of public relations. But there are also areas that need work, a bit of rehabilitation. And we’d like your help in defining those areas and, together, trying to fix them.'

Yup!

Nice idea but the crisis communication post will need a bit of an update.

    The answer is...it hasn't been hacked, but it was spammed like mad. I should know since I created the thing here at Ragan. Spammers are very difficult to keep out. This was our first wiki and, as such, we've made some mistakes along the way. The problem is fixed. Please re-visit the wiki and share your thoughts.
