Didn't think so either, but given MediaWiki is not immune to code injection attacks (much like how TV Tropes is still so leaky I bet you can still run PHP code you insert via plain editing, admittedly MW is not half as bad off, but it's got security issues too), I lean on the side of harsh crackdowns on anyone who does this sort of thing. It can frighten those less informed, it's not on topic, and just in case there is a security hole, no sense throwing it open by allowing such bizarre posting.
