For MediaWiki, a math captcha would be easy to get in place:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit

I don't know how effective that really simple captcha is, but I know a few 
not-so-large Wikis that use it, and don't have a spam problem. Also, I'm sure 
it would be easy to modify the source to add some more tricks, once the first 
spam bots got past.

Patrick.
