I have no idea why this website would be considered spam. It provides valuable information about Asian series - Korean, Japanese, etc. It is in English but provides a counterbalance or acts to enhance the info on IMDb, which is anglo-based, whereas Asianwiki is Asia-based. This is why they can provide more precise information: the original name, English title, alternative English title, literal English title based on the original-language title, and a transcription or various different transcription options. |

It also provides very clear and complete info on character and actor names and a brief summary of the plot, along with a trailer or two and other info. Thank you for reconsidering. [[User:Catgirl|Catgirl]] ([[User talk:Catgirl|talk]]) 17:45, 10 October 2022 (UTC) |

Revision as of 04:02, 12 October 2022
- 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 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 2024/08.

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. |
muitaviagem.com.br
muitaviagem.com.br
There are a few user accounts all related that are adding this link to domains, and it is a clear conflict of interest (see COIBot report). The users are also adding photographs from their site to Commons, and these links are in scope. So my suggestion is that add them to the global blacklist, though add them to the whitelist at Commons. @Achim55: for an opinion. — billinghurst sDrewth 10:05, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- billinghurst, I support that solution, will do on Commons. --Achim55 (talk) 11:49, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- Seemed @Achim55 had added them on whitelist over at commons, and this can be abused, I second @Billinghurst idea to add this on meta blacklist. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 11:11, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Billinghurst:
Added to Spam blacklist. I think fair amount of time had elapsed and no opposition, and the site is spammy and prone to abuse, so let's add it. Open to future local whitelist or removal if local communities complains which I do not expect at this moment. --Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 06:54, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
okx.com/join/
okx.com
- Link/text requested to be blacklisted:
okx.com/join
Cross-wiki spam. Thanks. SCP-2000 04:37, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- Seemed the okx.com domain is legitimate for some pages as an external link for the official website for the notable company, it's the /join link that is problematic. A full blacklisting might not be that suitable as it will need multiple wikis to whitelist it and might even trigger a quasi full protection. I think if there is a regex for just the join, I will be keen to add, otherwise a revert approach might be better. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 11:17, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Added the link as request source for the script. If only the official website is needed but there is too much abuse elsewhere we should still add the whole domain, we’ve done similar to other respectable domains as well. —Dirk Beetstra T C (en: U, T) 04:03, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Beetstra Seems fair. I guess I am just thinking a little too much in this aspect. There is abuse definitely, but I am not sure if it is to the level of too much though. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 06:52, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Proposed additions (Bot reported)
|
|
This section is for domains which have been added to multiple wikis as observed by a bot.
These are automated reports, please check the records and the link thoroughly, it may report good links! For some more info, see Spam blacklist/Help#COIBot_reports. Reports will automatically be archived by the bot when they get stale (less than 5 links reported, which have not been edited in the last 7 days, and where the last editor is COIBot).
|
The LinkWatchers report domains meeting the following criteria:
- When a user mainly adds this link, and the link has not been used too much, and this user adds the link to more than 2 wikis
- When a user mainly adds links on one server, and links on the server have not been used too much, and this user adds the links to more than 2 wikis
- If ALL links are added by IPs, and the link is added to more than 1 wiki
- If a small range of IPs have a preference for this link (but it may also have been added by other users), and the link is added to more than 1 wiki.

Please remove my company's website that a competitor has placed, it is harming me in the search engines. I will not post anything on wikipedia using this link abrantesseo.com thanks — The preceding unsigned comment was added by AbrantesSEO333 (talk)
Declined Something like this is sufficient for me to determine the addition of the link isn't done in good faith but just some SEO attempt by someone. Even if the addition is not by this company, nothing that no onwiki / offwiki evidences is provided that can prove this, the link itself is still spam. No reason to remove the link.

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). |
