Step 1: Backup LocalSettings.php'

Step 2: Unpack MediaWiki tarfile into the proper directory

Step 3: Copy LocalSettings.php into $MEDIAWIKI_ROOT

Step N: Reinstall SpamBlacklist As far as I know, this must be reinstalled whenever you update MediaWiki to a new version; to do this, run the following: 

cd $MEDIAWIKI_ROOT
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wikipedia login
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wikipedia co extensions/SpamBlacklist
cd extensions/SpamBlacklist
chmod +x load_lists
./load_lists
Then, follow the instructions in the . Re-run the load_lists script periodically to get the latest spam blacklist.
