+# Akismet
+
+GitLab leverages [Akismet](http://akismet.com) to protect against spam. Currently
+GitLab uses Akismet to prevent users who are not members of a project from
+creating spam via the GitLab API. Detected spam will be rejected, and
+an entry in the "Spam Log" section in the Admin page will be created.
+
+Privacy note: GitLab submits the user's IP and user agent to Akismet. Note that
+adding a user to a project will disable the Akismet check and prevent this
+from happening.
+
+## Configuration
+
+To use Akismet:
+
+1. Go to the URL: https://akismet.com/account/
+
+2. Sign-in or create a new account.
+
+3. Click on "Show" to reveal the API key.
+
+4. Go to Applications Settings on Admin Area (`admin/application_settings`)
+
+5. Check the `Enable Akismet` checkbox
+
+6. Fill in the API key from step 3.
+
+7. Save the configuration.
