: How can I allow sysops and specific users to hide spam articles in MediaWiki? My website is powered by MediaWiki Version 1.29.1. Sometimes the Recent Changes results page becomes cluttered

My website is powered by MediaWiki Version 1.29.1.

Sometimes the Recent Changes results page becomes cluttered with spam articles that I wish to hide from the results page. How can I allow specific users to hide them?

Keep in mind, I don't need spam protection and I only need to know how to hide spam articles from the results page.

I found a MediaWiki extension named Extension:Recent_Changes_Cleanup.
This extension does not work with MediaWiki 1.27 and larger.
It only works with 1.23.x - 1.26.x
I search the Official MediaWiki website for MediaWiki Version 1.25.1
I installed the download into a in a sub folder that i named cleanup.
I connected my database to the MediaWiki Version 1.25.1.
I installed the extension and now i can cleanup recent changes page.
