+# (Gitea) Admin Tools
+
+Checking for spammers regularly on my Gitea instance is a chore. I would
+love to disable registration on this instance but I also plan on moving
+all my code from GitHub to here. So closing registration isn't an
+option.
+
+This repository contains utils to deal with spam. To start out, it
+fetches all user details from Gitea and ~~notifies~~ yells about new
+users. The admin, me, should then manually look for them to see if they
+are spammers and delete if necessary.
+
+**Needs admin account on Gitea**
