- Proposed additions
- Please provide evidence of spamming on several wikis. Spam that only affects a single project should go to that project's local blacklist. Exceptions include malicious domains and URL redirector/shortener services. Please follow this format. Please check back after submitting your report, there could be questions regarding your request.
- Proposed removals
- Please check our list of requests which repeatedly get declined. Typically, we do not remove domains from the spam blacklist in response to site-owners' requests. Instead, we de-blacklist sites when trusted, high-volume editors request the use of blacklisted links because of their value in support of our projects. Please consider whether requesting whitelisting on a specific wiki for a specific use is more appropriate - that is very often the case.
- Other discussion
- Troubleshooting and problems - If there is an error in the blacklist (i.e. a regex error) which is causing problems, please raise the issue here.
- Discussion - Meta-discussion concerning the operation of the blacklist and related pages, and communication among the spam blacklist team.
- #wikimedia-external-linksconnect - Real-time IRC chat for co-ordination of activities related to maintenance of the blacklist.
Please sign your posts with ~~~~ after your comment. This leaves a signature and timestamp so conversations are easier to follow.
Completed requests are marked as {{added}}/{{removed}} or {{declined}}, and are generally archived (search) quickly. Additions and removals are logged.

Proposed additions
|
This section is for proposing that a website be blacklisted; add new entries at the bottom of the section, using the basic URL so that there is no link (example.com, not http://www.example.com). Provide links demonstrating widespread spamming by multiple users on multiple wikis. Completed requests will be marked as {{added}} or {{declined}} and archived. |
herbstopic.com
herbstopic.com
herbstopic.com is getting spammed cross wiki by various broadband.tenet.odessa.ua IPs. --85.167.164.167 20:18, 17 October 2010 (UTC).
Hello guys.
the HerbsTopic project - is the project aimed to give to user visual information from one site about Herbs and other plants.
There are many sites about herbs, but no one of them propose many of fotos and description on various languages. With this project user can obtain this info in one place.
As I post here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herb anybody can help to develop this project.
Of course, you can say: there are wiki and other related sites, but the not propose various plant fotos from various views, and people, in common, don't view academical sites, it more comfortable for people to view many fotos in one place and don't waste time to find fotos of plant (because all fotos tagged with various languages) or find the name of the plant by fotos.
There are photografers and people what I asked to help (with fotos) and obtain it.
By posting information on wiki I aimed: 1) show people visual information; 2) draw attention to my site people who want to help with fotos.
Herbstopic project is a SITE FOR PEOPLE ONLY. I realised what it can considered as a spam and already registered (as someone already mentioned). I'm going develop Uk part. I'm not a spammer and post a links only for little part of my fotos. No more. And I'm not going to post in the future. It's only my hobby and takes me time to do so. Sorry for my actions. And if you insist I'm ready to delete all my links. And I ask you do not consider Herbstopic in a blacklist. Thanks
All links has been deleted from wiki. You can refer to HT site if you want. THANKS for your work.
Declined. User is acting in good faith. Siet is informative, but I do not see why this info could not be added to wikipedia. --EdBever 13:48, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Nolo.com affiliate spam
nolo.com
See [1]. This user is pushing affiliate-links on wikipedia. I have already blacklisted godaddy.com, but nolo.com has a more difficult link, for which I do not trust my regex-knowledge enough. Please have a look at what regex would blacklist the affiliate-links. From nolo.com: "Now there's an easy way to offer your website visitors Nolo's quality products -- with no orders to ship, no customer service issues and -- best of all -- no overhead! If you have a website, you can partner with us at no cost to you, and start earning up to 15 percent commissions." EdBever 20:40, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

mike@meta:~$15:44, 11 January 2011 (UTC)- This need to be removed. Links to wowhead itself isn't the problem, it is a World of Warcraft fansite. Those user profiles are spambots, so the problem lies within whomever is responsible for moderating content on their site...if anything the entry should be modified to block only those user profiles and not the site itself. --Charitwo 19:17, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- This is Malgayne from Wowhead.com. We've wiped out the spammers' profiles, and we're instituting a policy that SHOULD prevent this from happening in the future. There were 5000 or so users created, and if you'd like it, we have a zipped CSV available of all the spammer profiles in the list. Assuming that you trust me, you can download the zipped CSV from my dropbox account at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18286810/badusers.zip. If you ever encounter anything like this again, please contact me at malgayne@wowhead.com and I'll get it straightened out. In the meantime, we'd love if you could remove this blacklist as it's causing a lot of trouble with World of Warcraft themed wikis like WoWWiki.com or Wowpedia.org. —Malgayne

Removed. I did investigate the link, but not the links mentioned in the diff on Openhatch wiki since I was in a public place and I generally do not investigate kiddyporn sites, I blacklist those on sight. I saw the profiles in question several minutes ago and saw they were empty. I have removed the link after the above comment. The link was inserted a lot of times on various wikis: Top 10 wikis where wowhead.com has been added: w:en (160), w:fi (43), w:tr (40), w:ru (34), w:fr (33), w:cs (27), w:da (11), w:it (8), w:de (8), w:simple (7). Top 10 editors who have added wowhead.com: Vikiçizer (24), Ghostcrawler (18), Stifle(17), Jakub Vejhonek (16), Fandyllic (14), 137.163.18.150 (14), Salebot (12), 82.254.121.178 (11), 88.224.47.224 (7), Mskyrider (7). 50 instances remain on en:, although most on user- and talk pages. I assume the link might be deemed relevant and the spamming has been stopped. Thank you for cooperating and apologies for any inconvenience. EdBever 21:31, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Happy to help. Again, you can reach me at malgayne@wowhead.com if this ever happens again.

Geocities.com
There are multiple blacklist entries to various subpages of geocities.com. Seeing as Geocities no longer exists, I guess these entries can be removed now. -- Prince Kassad 18:53, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- Seeing the service quit, I'd say we could delist. EdBever 14:40, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Number 10 (Office of UK Prime Minister)
I tried to link to this page http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/ for an edit to the internet petitions article and met with a spam block. Can the whole UK Prime Minister's website please be unspam-blocked. Can't really explain why, but just kind of seems worthwhile, thanks, BrekekekexKoaxKoax 05:28, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Comment. The block is because of the word petition I think, but it is -as far as I can see- not a globally blacklisted term. I think it is because of the locally blacklisted regex \bpetition(?:online|s)?\b) on en:wp. I have moved this request to en:MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist#petitioXns.number10.gov.uk (permlink).

Windows8update.com
This is a valuable resource for Microsoft Windows 8 News that has real educational value for those interested in the next version of Windows. I am submitting this for removal from the blacklist.— The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.38.109.195 (talk)
- Not blacklisted here, but on en.wikipedia, ar.wikipedia and hi.wikipedia. Note, it does not seem to be related to Microsoft Office, but to a company (Nnigma Inc.).

- Isn't being blacklisted on three wikis grounds for blacklisting here? MER-C 11:54, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
alldatasheet.com
alldatasheet.com
I sometimes use datasheets of electronic parts as a cite source in discussions on de.wp. It's really a nuisance that domain is blocked in meta. It is really one of the most complete sources of datasheets on the web and the part in question is linkable without problems -- at least it could be. I know I could look the datasheets up at the part manufacturer's web sites, bus often the parts are hard to find there or on deep links that are only accessible with the correct cookie. Thus, I ask you to unblock that site. Thanks. -- Janka 20:21, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
- Comment Link is indeed on the global blacklist. It was blacklisted as a datasheet4u.com mirror, which was blacklisted along with its mirrors in 2007 [7][8]. Both sites are registered in Korea, but a whois does not provide matching data. The site itself is advertised on Google searches, so there is a commercial interest in spamming.
Related domains:
AllDataSheet.co.kr
AllDataSheet.net
datasheet.co.kr
datasheet.in
datasheets.in

Datasheet4u.net
DataSheetList.com
- The Alldatsheet.* URL's are registered to Interbird, Inc. of Busan, Korea. The other links links are registered to Young-Su Kim/Jeju Far East Broadcasting Company Aewol-eup Bukjeju-gun os Seoul, Korea. The links were mainly added to en:Datasheet, semi-protecting did not help so the links were blacklisted. The user in question did not show good faith. Although the spam occurred 3 years ago and the site might be relevant to wikipedia as a reference I'd say we should decline this request for delisting since the links were heavily spammed and this a large network of interconnected sites. EdBever 10:28, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
- Are alldatasheet* and datasheet*|datasheet4u* still connected? Were they ever? While alldatasheet.com and parallel domains offer datasheets and have only mild advertisement, the datasheet* sites are really ad-bloated, cross-linking fake sites which do not offer datasheets at all (or I'm not getting it how to access them). -- Janka 15:22, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
http:\\www.antiques-help.com
This is a valuable resource of information website, and not monetized. The information provided on the site was completely relevant to the pages it was linked from like: w:es:Comic book - Link: antiques-help.com/antiquecomicbooks ; or w:en:Barometer - Link: antiques-help.com/antiqueglassbarometer
With what logic this site antiques-help.com/antiquecomicbooks gets removed while this one http://www.comicsninja.com stays? considering that this site is obviously a monetized site and is not even working?
This is another example in this Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocking_chair : why would this link antiques-help.com/antique-wooden-rocking-chairs be removed and not this one http://www.designboom.com/eng/education/rockingchair.html that has exactly 41 links from Wikipedia back to his site, isn't this considered spam?
For all the above mentioned reasons I request a removal from the blacklist. Thank you for your attention

In progress
- What's the benefit of adding {{status}} to removal requests?
- Does anyone feel like having a look at those old requests for removal that haven't been "in progress" for quite a while? Finn Rindahl 19:36, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- I added the template. I added it because I wanted to see quickly which requests were handled and which or them were not since this page was (and is) too long. Feel free to remove it. --dferg ☎ talk 15:41, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Archiving errors caused by blacklisting
As noted by two users on en.wiki here, blacklisting can cause archiving problems if a link is mentioned on a talk page before it is blacklisted, as bots cannot add the link to the archive, meaning that many threads can be lost. Is there anyway this could be remedied? I think the easiest way would be for admins to check that the link isn't mentioned anywhere before adding it to the blacklist. Thanks Smartse 00:23, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
- Well, as Smackbot first tries to save a thread to the archive, and then blanks those threads from the original, I would say, that if Smackbot would run into a failure to save (the blacklist is not the only reason why that may happen, though probably the most frequent one and the easiest one to prevent) that it should not blank threads in the first place.
- (frustration follows, my apologies, nothing personal, the misunderstanding is common under most editors) That being said, the blacklist, as the rest of Wikipedia, is run by volunteers. Only a few of them, unfortunately. The size and scale of spam however, takes a lot of time (while some regulars here would also like to do other things, like actually building an encyclopedia). Cleaning up behind editors is an important task, but mainspace (template space included) is our first concern, and talkpages etc. are only a lower concern, and unfortunately we do not always get to clearing those links on talkpages.
- Solving this by first removing all the rubbish before blacklisting is unfortunately a total misunderstanding of the size of the problem. We blacklist when additions are uncontrollable, cleaning is a lower concern (especially since saving a page which already contains a blacklisting link is not a problem, the only problem is when one adds (in one form or another) a link to a page). If links first need to be cleaned, then you keep running behind the spammers, and the disruption continues.
- But of course, you are free to invite more editors here who can help solving the problem in the way you describe - but with the current number of editors active here, that will be an impossible task. Thanks for your understanding. --Dirk Beetstra T C (en: U, T) 08:06, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
polices
So who exactly polices this list? Who's to say some "member" comes in, bans his competitors claiming they were causing problems for him, and continues to police the entries he has now taken over. Sounds pretty far fetched huh. Yeah, right. With the weight google gives your listings it is exactly the type of thing a certain Australian reseller would do to gain advantage over his more successful US competitior. All one can hope for is natural law prevails and he is scanf out of here.— The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.20.144.58 (talk)
- You presume that links get blacklisted because someone complains. That is not the case, links get blacklisted because they are abused. Although your scenario is a possible case .. that does not mean that all is done to avoid that, or that the editors here would not be listening when editors show such concerns. I hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra T C (en: U, T) 11:32, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
Edit summaries
Apparently the spam blacklist prevents linking to blacklisted sites in edit summaries as well as pages themselves. Is this a feature or a bug? It is really annoying not being able to use url shorteners in edit summaries - this is an ideal use for them. Steel 21:24, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
