I'm blacklisting this link because it's being abused by a spambot that's IP hopping from an Ukrainian mobile service provider. It's being catched by filters, but this keeps leading to entire IP ranges being (globally) blocked, which probably shouldn't happen. - [[User:XXBlackburnXx|XXBlackburnXx]] ([[User talk:XXBlackburnXx|talk]]) 23:33, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

These three sites were added to Spam Blacklist owing to https://w.wiki/45Kd, In which [[User:JEissfeldt (WMF)]] said, "For the same reason (Foundation bans cover people), wikis hosted by the Foundation should not link to Wikimedia-related spaces controlled by people listed on the WMF Global Ban policy."


I kindly request the removal of amasty.com from the blacklist. The links to our site were added to e-commerce and retail-related pages where additional information and/or context was necessary. Amasty is a well-established name in the e-commerce industry and our blog articles are crafted to offer in-depth, relevant content that can greatly enhance Wikipedia readers' understanding of various e-commerce and business topics.
But it seems that JEissfeldt's opinion doesn't agree with [[WMF Global Ban Policy#Implications_of_a_global_ban]], where, according to my own comprehension, prohibits WMF-global-banned people from taking part in projects related to Wikimedia, in any manner or to any extent. However, did a link to a site controlled by a banned person imply that he is taking part in Wikipedia? I think not, for who took part in Wikipedia was the one who added this link, not the banned person. If Elon Musk is WMF-global-banned, should we add Twitter to our blacklist? I think it absurd.


We understand the importance of maintaining Wikipedia's integrity and will be committed to contributing positively to the Wikipedia community. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;The preceding [[mw:Help:Signatures|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Tomtumper|Tomtumper]] ([[User talk:Tomtumper|{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}]]) </small>

The associated page is used by the MediaWiki Spam Blacklist extension, and lists regular expressions which cannot be used in URLs in any page in Wikimedia Foundation projects (as well as many external wikis). Any Meta administrator can edit the spam blacklist; either manually or with SBHandler. For more information on what the spam blacklist is for, and the processes used here, please see Spam blacklist/About.

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.
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 respective Mediawiki talk:Spam-whitelist page 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 2024/08.

SpBot archives all sections tagged with {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} after 3 days and sections whose most recent comment is older than 7 days.

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 {{removed}} or {{declined}} and archived.

See also recurring requests for repeatedly proposed (and refused) removals.

Notes:

  • The addition or removal of a domain from the blacklist is not a vote; please do not bold the first words in statements.
  • This page is for the removal of domains from the global blacklist, not for removal of domains from the blacklists of individual wikis. For those requests please take your discussion to the pertinent wiki, where such requests would be made at Mediawiki talk:Spam-blacklist at that wiki. Search spamlists — remember to enter any relevant language code


amasty.com

[edit]


I kindly request the removal of amasty.com from the blacklist. The links to our site were added to e-commerce and retail-related pages where additional information and/or context was necessary. Amasty is a well-established name in the e-commerce industry and our blog articles are crafted to offer in-depth, relevant content that can greatly enhance Wikipedia readers' understanding of various e-commerce and business topics.

We understand the importance of maintaining Wikipedia's integrity and will be committed to contributing positively to the Wikipedia community. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tomtumper (talk)

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).

Discussion

[edit]
This section is for discussion of Spam blacklist issues among other users.
