Talk:Spam blacklist
- 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. Reports can also be submitted through SBRequest.js. 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.
- Whitelists
There is no global whitelist, so if you are seeking a whitelisting of a url at a wiki then please address such matters via use of the respectiveMediawiki talk:Spam-whitelistpage at that wiki, and you should consider the use of the template {{edit protected}} or its local equivalent to get attention to your edit.
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 quickly. Additions and removals are logged · current log 2025/06.

Proposed additions
[edit]
|
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. |

Proposed removals
[edit]|

This section is for proposing that a website be unlisted; please add new entries at the bottom of the section. Use a suitable 3rd level heading and display the domain name as per this example {{LinkSummary|targetdomain.com}}. Please do not add the protocol part of domain name, eg. http
Remember to provide the specific domain blacklisted, links to the articles they are used in or useful to, and arguments in favour of unlisting. Completed requests will be marked as See also recurring requests for repeatedly proposed (and refused) removals. Notes:

Troubleshooting and problems
[edit]|
|
This section is for comments related to problems with the blacklist (such as incorrect syntax or entries not being blocked), or problems saving a page because of a blacklisted link. This is not the section to request that an entry be unlisted (see Proposed removals above). |
Is there a way to run a regex check against the blocklist? I'm trying to add https://web.arcXhive.org/web/20220311002133/https://ogilviehigh.education.tas.edu.au (without the X in the middle) as an "archive URL" to an entry in Wikidata; the publish option is greyed out, unless I make a tiny change to the URL (in the example shown - adding the "X"). It doesn't work without it). The talk page for the property points to this list, which is why I suspect it is involved. I'm not definite though - I'd like to know for sure. Other weirdness - the 'publish' link activates if I remove the r, c, h, i or v from archive, but not if I remove the a or e. No idea if this issue relates to this blacklist, but thought I'd check. -- Chuq (talk) 07:47, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- The link is not on any spam blacklist, see here. Adding it on Wikidata worked fine for me. Count Count (talk) 07:57, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks @Count Count. Not sure what was causing it. I'll do more testing on other devices to see if I can work it out. -- Chuq (talk) 08:14, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
