spammed by SPA

incl. spamming into unrelated topics [1], and after final warning. GermanJoe (talk) 03:41, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked. MER-C 16:29, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

httpmasspmmusclegrowthcom etc.

The following domains are among those being promoted, mostly concatenated site addresses with "." removed, so I don't know if they can be blacklisted as such:

No, but seeing that these domains are not blacklisted  Defer to Global blacklist. MER-C 11:49, 15 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

tollyspice.com

Mostly the work of one guy as far as I can tell. Originally started spamming this site as Rohith Kilari, but then started socking as Abhay Ram. I've indeffed both, but considering he's now socking, it might be wise to consider the blacklist. Site is typical cookie-cutter Indian entertainment nothingness. From their [www.tollyspice.com/p/started-in-february-2016-tollyspice.html About us page], "Started in February 2016, TollySpice delivers quality film updates." Obviously if it was started last month it couldn't possibly be considered a reliable published source with an established reputation for fact-checking, etc. Advertising seems to be the only motive for adding links at Wikipedia. As of this report, I've removed all of the links from the English Wikipedia. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:10, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Another brand new user, Prasanth KC (talk · contribs · logs), has begun adding tollyspice to articles and in talk page requests[2][3]. I'll run the user through CU at SPI, but I think it's time to blacklist this site. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:34, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

sukhbirsinghbadalofficial.blog.com

A spam link that was added to several pages by sockpuppet accounts and IPs (see: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Hemantwps). The IP ranges are too large to block. Vanjagenije (talk) 10:10, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

genius.com

computergeekblog.com

This link has been repeatedly spammed by IPs despite multiple warnings. Blocking the IPs won't help because the spammer is IP-hopping. Page protection won't help because each link addition is to a different page. Deli nk (talk) 11:27, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Either a sockdrawer or multiple users spamming copyvio text and links to a commercial gallery into art articles. Having to delete for copyvios, including an entire article. Strongly suspect the additions are WP:CITESPAM. Have warned both accounts and will probably block them shortly. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 18:27, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ooops. I was copying in the code from a report up-page and accidentally left in Zeroo12345 when I meant to swap in Jb2497. Still, all spammers, all blocked. But I will adjust the sock templates. Thanks for catching that. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 15:44, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Adding spam link masquerading as photo gallery to Container terminal at [28] [29] [30] [31] [32]. General Ization Talk 12:19, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@General Ization: This appears for the moment to be one user:
who is adding this to one page (Container terminal). The user is blocked, and if the user persists (by socking) to add it again there the page could be protected (though if that persistence-through-socking is then there that would be sufficient grounds for blacklisting). I therefore think that other methods are not yet exhausted. no Declined (for now). --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:45, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to not have been updated two years, infected with ransomware. Was used in 6 articles, I have removed the site from all six at enwp. Questionable as a reliable source anyway, but risk of it being used and accidentally either randoming (or infecting, I didn't test every page for vulnerabilities) is higher than it's dubious utility.

Ah, I forgot to check the external links. You're making me look bad, The Voidwalker ;) Thanks for the back up today. I don't do a lot of blacklist stuff, hence why I list it here instead of directly editing the blacklist myself. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 22:12, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is a mirror address of [48] (main domain), A personal, nationalistic and pseudo-scientific website/blog related to Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Tirgil34. I don't know if the main domain is in blacklist or not, but users still can use the mirror domain links in WP articles, an example. The long-term abuser and his related accounts plagued many articles and talk pages with the content of that website. Also, the nationalist spammer revealed why he uses WP (as a battleground, to promote his POVs).[49], [50] --Wario-Man (talk) 05:20, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
