It looks like the "Prevent posting of Friend Code in Articles" abuse filter doesn't catch those WBB-* codes in comments. :(

Assuming I understood correctly what I read at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AbuseFilter and its linked pages, I guess you could add the WBB-* style codes to the filter or maybe some generic regular expression like

\W[A-Za-z]{3}-[A-Za-z]{3}-[A-Za-z]{3}\W

might work to catch _all_ types of friend codes?
