Presumably the bots are hitting dokuwiki sites by using known
consistent features of the page. A solution I saw float past on Slashdot
recently is to make the button that's called "edit this page" just be a
dummy which is invisible to human readers but which will attract bots,
and have the real "edit this page" button called something different but
show up properly for humans.
I'm not sure if I'm explaining that correctly, so here's the link:
