Deleting tickets in Trac

I'm having problems with spam in my Trac instance which keeps track of my PyBlosxom plugins. It's ... irritating. Anyhow, now that classes are almost over, I decided to poke around and figure out how to delete them rather than mark them as "invalid". Turns out it's really easy: 

trac-admin [project-dir] ticket remove [ticket-number]

The Trac database is also a standard sqlite file, so I've used the sqlite client to clean out spam directly using SQL statements.  It's handy when you have a lot of stuff to remove, like numerous wiki modifications from the same set of IP addresses.


Please keep comments appropriate. I reserve the right to remove anonymous comments, flames, spammy, inappropriate, and other comments that I deem to be worth removing.

Note: New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Usually that happens within 24 hours, but sometimes I go away and it takes a day or two.

Note 2: There is now a preview button for those of you who want to see a preview! However, it doesn't quite work the way you'd think it should work. I'll look into adjusting it some day.

Note 3: If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.
