Possible Wiki Issue-
Does anyone know who the user "AssaSom" is? This user has set up in MicrasWiki, and also in Shirewiki.
In both places, it uploaded an seemingly innocuous MediaWiki graphic.
Something smells of a spambot getting ready to load massive amounts of drugspam, but I've been paranoid before.

I've posted a message on the users talk page, if they fail to reply in the next few days I'd say we can assume it's spam.

(edit)
New info. tells me this is a dangerous spambot. I'm blocking it, if I'm wrong I'll apologize later.....

Not "an" ... the traditional rule is that if the "h" is sounded, you use "a", if it is not, you use "an". Needless to say, with the exception of localised accents, the "h" in "hero" is generally sounded. As such, proper usage of the indefinite article is "a hero" in that case.

I can't pronounce "an 'ero" without sounding Cockney
