[[Special:SmiteSpam|SmiteSpam]] might be faster as it detects spam and provides you a way to easily delete the page and block user in one go. However it also detects some normal pages, so use with caution.

Use [[Special:Nuke|Nuke]] to remove pages. If you don't provide anything in the search field, all recently created pages are listed, which can be useful when there are a lot of pages to delete. Only select the relevant spam pages and purge them.

Use [[Special:ListUsers|User List]] to list all users. You can sort them by creation date and reverse order to get all new accounts. Blocking them one by one requires a few clicks, as there's currently no easy way to block a bunch of users. Remember to set block duration to "indefinite."
