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 2024/05.

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.

I am writing to request that surahalmulk.net be removed from the local or global spam blacklists. I believe that this website should be allowed because the website has a well-structured and unique content that is also used in Wikipedia content on the article {Surah Al-Mulk}. Specifically, here at surahalmulk.net, we help people understand, learn, and read Surah Al-Mulk with our 5 years of knowledge in this niche. We’ll explain what each verse means and why it’s important. Whether you’re new to studying the Quran or have been doing it for a while, our content will teach you new things and inspire you to come close to Allah.I have checked the blacklists and found that the website is affected by the global spam blacklists. I understand that the website was blocked due to spaming, I don't know how did it.However, I believe that the website has since addressed the concerns that led to the block. Therefore, I respectfully request that the website be removed from the blacklists.If you require any additional information or evidence, please let me know. I am happy to provide any necessary details to support my request. Thank you!! Hammadchannarmalik (talk) 15:28, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
please open a new discussion under #Proposed_removals and follow the instructions there. - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 16:52, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Misc spammers edit























- related to one of the cross-wiki gambling spammers; 1) they always add a bunch of translated text and sneakily add a spam link to it 2) they always edit around the same time so its likely from the same group or person 3) they all use the same type of VPN. blacklisting all detected. - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 20:53, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

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

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.
