I'm not sure if this user is spamming or not, but it appears they are only adding links to the Daily Telegraph, so my question is, is it spam?

Good question, It's not exactly a promotional link, but all of the account's edits appear to involve these links, and some of them are of questionable value. Thoughts? --Ckatzchatspy 22:11, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

www.voobly.com keeps spamming with different new accounts it makes

www.voobly.com keeps spamming itself at the Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings page, and elsewhere. New accounts keep adding it in, every time I or someone else eliminates it. Tedhoffman, Tnt pde, 71.30.3.38 are spam accounts, doing nothing more than adding it the ad for that site. Dream Focus 01:15, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

They previously were known as www.igzones.com and spammed all over the place. Searching for that, I see articles with that link in them, that shouldn't be. In the article Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds I just erased their spam, they having a reference to a Microsoft announcement that suggested using two other systems for online games, neither of which was them though. [1] Dream Focus 01:38, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
links
I added LinkSummary for the URLs for easier reference to the existing usage of the links. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 02:28, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. They even created a few other sites claiming to host maps, which had almost nothing at all on them, other than links to their commercial site. Microsoft used to call its site Internet Gaming Zone, so igzone might confuse some people, I thinking that done deliberately to confuse. The same company registered the domain name http://www.microsoftants.com/ to confuse people, that site having nothing to do with Microsoft, it just linking to their other site once again. I'll try to alert Microsoft of this so they can shut that one down. Dream Focus 10:28, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
There's also a voobly.net which seems to be an affiliate site of voobly.com. the .net one has a different owner listed, but says powered by the .com site. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 14:58, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
  • A new IP address [2] which has never been used on Wikipedia before, just spammed another article with these two links. Even reinserted it after the first editor reverted it. Anyway to stop links to certain pages from being added? Dream Focus 14:59, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

User spamming Smallville pages

User has been adding external links to many smallville articles by his own admission, many to the site http://ejumpcut.org . The user has then edit warred with an IP to keep those pages in, and reported that IP for vandalism for removing those links. Bignole has now asked for some of those pages to be protected. Martin451 (talk) 23:18, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

First, I have not been "spamming". Those links have been there for more than a year. Second, the link itself is not spam. It's a peer journal that I attained from my university search engine. The journal itself is an analysis of the show homosexual subtexts present in the show Smallville through five seasons. The journal was written by an assistant professor who specializes in sexuality on television (that's what his degree is in, and he's written other journals and books on the subject). The link is a legitimate one to include on those specific pages, because it directly pertains to those specific pages. I'm not including some link to the basic website in the hopes of promoting anything (which would be spam). I included a link to an online media journal (which appears in Google Scholar and only university peer review journal searches) that has relevance.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 23:35, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Football fansites

Too many individual links to list, but a domain whois shows that they are all owned by the same person. The editors can probably be blocked for sockpuppetry/spamming. Perhaps it would be a good idea to add the links to XLinkBot's revert list, as they are fansites and not likely to be used to good effect. ThemFromSpace 18:51, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Possible spam sites?

I came across a user (SimonThird) whose only contributions consisted of adding text referenced to two specific sites, "banking-business-review.com" and "cbronline.com". A check into these sites shows that they are almost identical in design, they are published by the same company, and they share the same IP address. one site (cbronline) is used in hundreds of articles, but I wonder if the sites are really suitable to be considered "reliable sources" or if they are in fact more domain-spammer sites. Thoughts? --Ckatzchatspy 04:51, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

The Progressive Media "About Us" blurb, "The Business Review websites are your number one stop for all the latest news, comment and industry information. Each Business Review website offers content that is produced by a dedicated team of journalists and global industry experts." I'm not convinced that these sites should be used as references, especially given the emerging pattern of spam. Should we blacklist the lot? --Ckatzchatspy 09:28, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

MovieFan3121 and various sockpuppets

It's not easy keeping up with this user, who keeps inserting links to an obscure website right near Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes. Two pretty obvious sockpuppets are listed here [5]. Sluggo | Talk 04:36, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Glad you saw this as well. I've already blacklisted the site, having noticed the pattern. --Ckatzchatspy 05:11, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

I've been noticing quite a bit of linkspam activity on various articles recently using vk.com links with referral codes.

Links to the domain have no encyclopedic value except on the Vkontakte article. Dancter (talk) 17:35, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

The link was added by another IP today:
If this continues, the link should be recommended at WP:SBL, as the site provides no encyclopedic value for any article other than the one about itself. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 04:15, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

- MrOllie (talk) 15:30, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
The same anon added it again after MrOllie removed it. The vandal is clearly persistent, choosing to not discuss the link additions, and not interested in following WP policies and guidelines ... so I'm submitting a request to WP:SBL for this. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 15:43, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

I've submitted a request at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist#vk.com. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 15:53, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
Now that vk.com has been blacklisted, they've started using the main vkontakte.ru domain.[13] Dancter (talk) 20:20, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
Based on the different referral codes being used, the IPs are all different people. Apparently, after Vkontakte's recent acquisition of vk.com, the social network has a promotion encouraging users to refer new members for the opportunity to get an iPod. Not all links to the main vkontakte.ru site are referral links, but nearly all content on the site is restricted to logged-in members. Dancter (talk) 21:04, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
additional links

Added {{LinkSummary}} for the vkontakte.ru domain, for easier reference. Has already been requested at WP:SBL by MrOllie. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 21:16, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

The contest started October 10 (which coincides with when the spamming started), and ends October 24. Dancter (talk) 17:18, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

This is a website for creating free forums - and as such the material in it fails as a reliable source, as well as failing WP:ELNO. At the very least, I think the site should be added to XLinkBot. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 00:30, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Repeated spamming of link into multiple articles, despite being reverted and warned by several other editors. User has not engaged in discussion about the link on any talk page - simply returns and continues to add the link. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 01:46, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Wow, that's one big linkfarm. MER-C 13:15, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I have added 'learn-how-to-speak' as a rule to COIBot. That should catch them all. If IP's persist, we could consider adding that also as a rule to XLinkBot. --Dirk Beetstra T C 13:31, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Before 10 May, the links at Foreign Service Institute were all to a single non-commercial site. These were then replaced with mainly commercial links. The number of links was excessive to begin with, but since the FSI courses are apparently in the public domain as US government products, I don't see any reason to object to a single link to a non-commercial online version.

trying to insert some poor quality physics equation list into various physics articles. DVdm (talk) 18:06, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

I have contested this "spam" submission on the basis of the neutral, accurate, and reliable clause, the site being supported by affiliates of the University of Wisconsin, as well as its relevance to the pages it has been added to. User DVdm's classification of "some poor quality physics equation list" is evidence of his apparent bias, which is against the mission of Wikipedia. User DVdm has a history of this type of abuse. --Calccrazy1dx 21 October 2009
I confirm the validity of the original report by DVdm and have added the LinkSummary above. Calccrazy1dx is clearly trying to promote the web site and does not understand WP:EL. Johnuniq (talk) 00:45, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
I understand the concept of trying to promote a website, but how is that different from any other external link on Wikipedia? Every external link is promoting a website, so if we wanted to be consistent, there should be no external links on Wikipedia, but that would be a disservice to the users. I think if there is a wiki page called "list of elementary physics formulas" and then there is a website that provides a list of elementary physics formulas with added features such as a method to search those formulas, how is this not relevant and constructive? I would agree with the above assessment if the website charged for its services or contained excessive advertisement, but it clearly does not. --Calccrazy1dx 22 October 2009

SPA spamming link onto multiple articles. The site does have value with many of its pages as a potential ref in many articles, so should not be black-listed. But the specific links being added by the SPA to the EL sections do not expand on the content already in the article, the only new data is links to providers. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 16:10, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Re-addition of link to "an online game with a one-world government theme" into the World government article. The website is a combination forum/on-line game/networking site, and fails WP:ELNO. The link would be appropriate on an article about the site - if it could meet WP:N; but has no other encyclopedic value. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 15:53, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

sathint.com

I came across User:Confusioner today due to an edit he made to EchoStar, which was on my watchlist. He was inserting links for the domain above, for each of the satellites launched or currently in use by EchoStar or Dish Network. I have no information regarding the reliability of the site in question, and I have not (yet) reverted the dozen or so articles he added the link to a few weeks ago. The chief issue that normally arises is that editors point to other "competing" external links (in this case, like lyngsat.com), and (reasonably?) argue something along the lines of other stuff exists. Should I go ahead and remove all of the sathint.com links? Which begs the question of what to do about lyngsat.com (which is a website I have actually used on my own countless times, full disclosure). user:J aka justen (talk) 22:42, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I recommend reverting all those link additions as blatant promotional spam. It's pretty clear in Intelsat that a link to TV/radio channels is totally non-encyclopedic (I reverted that). The 280 links to LyngSat also look dubious (particularly as links dumped in the article body, with no encyclopedic value that I noticed), but we deal with one problem at a time. Johnuniq (talk) 01:09, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
Done re: sathint, and done re: lyngsat where both existed in the same article. I will finish up with lyngsat in the near future unless somebody beats me to it in the meantime. user:J aka justen (talk) 06:12, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

User: 210.13.114.2 (talk) (contribs) persistent link spamming

penguinpowerhour.com

link
accounts

Repeated spamming of link to download a game. The edit summary of the user sums it up: "I developed a free game that fallows the basic guide lines of what is listed on this site. People may download the program and use it with there friends."

The link is clearly intended to advertise his work, and the site fails WP:ELNO as well as WP:NOT. --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 15:40, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Given that this relates to past problems (Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Spam/2009_Archive_Jan_1#Spam_links_to_Dan_Schneider_articles_again), I thought it would be best to document what I find. So far, it just looks like old spamming that wasn't cleaned up. --Ronz (talk) 19:01, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Repeatedly added to Trust-based marketing, Medicare Part D Cost Utilization Measures, Loyalty marketing, Medicare (United States), Medicare Advantage, Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act, Medicare Part D, Medigap, others. I think it's been used by other users, but I can't find them at the moment. tedder (talk) 19:08, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

This should probably be added to XLinkBot's revert list, as there isn't much of an encyclopedic use for the link, and it has been added in bulk to several articles, making removal hard when the undo/revert function aren't available. The IPs may also need blocked as well. ThemFromSpace 21:40, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
