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 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. |

Cross-wiki coin investment spam, mostly already deleted. Already blacklisted on en:wiki. The IP list may not be complete. 160.154.233.58 and 190.110.218.100 are open proxies (link, link). Wutsje (talk) 18:23, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Wutsje: is it clearly and widely crosswiki? I am only seeing stuff at enWP and they have blacklisted it. Maybe it could just be monitored, and asking stewards to manage the OPs. — billinghurst sDrewth 21:28, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Removed as it is a Quora internal shortcut and should be more widely discussed. It is being used for spamming, so it should be considered for blocking, though clear consequences of doing so. — billinghurst sDrewth 06:34, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

- Note: see also Special:Diff/25926045. Adding the string jeremypivenpage to a global abuse filter will probably suffice, given this user's strong attachment to it. Wutsje (talk) 16:50, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Proposed additions (Bot reported) edit
|
|
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).
|
COIBot edit
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.

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

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. |
"domkubetains" edit
Does anyone know why at the top it says "add new links to these domkubetains"? I'm fairly sure this should say "add new links to these domains". Looks like it was added at Special:Diff/25661777, and just never fixed? EggRoll97 (talk) 01:48, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

4channel.org
I was directed here from the Wikipedia spamlist. As far as I can tell, the 4channel.org link in this only recently started being blocked by the spam filter, as it had just been restored on 28 November. I don't think this should be blocked from all projects (as it might illustrate a historical event as in this case), but what I am wondering is what changed between the last restoration and now, because the only discussion I see in the archives about 4channel.org was from 2020. Thanks. DIYeditor (talk) 03:21, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
- @DIYeditor: 4channel has been blocked since 2020. What happens with domains on the list is that they cannot be added to articles, it should not effect any existing use of the domain. In the edit that you show, the domain has been removed from the articles, which is behaviour expected. If there was any attempts at addition of links then that should be prohibited. So things are acting as expected. To note that a REVERSION action is seen differently in and by the system than an edit. A revert will restore a version, whether the link contained is blacklisted or not.
If you think that the links should exist in any article, then you will need to work with whichever wiki to have things whitelisted, so
Defer to w:en:en:Mediawiki talk:spam-whitelist — billinghurst sDrewth 04:19, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you. I got the blocked message when I tried to undo the removal of the link, as had happened on the 28 November edit without triggering the filter, but I think there was an intervening edit between the last restoration and the source blanking which I reverted. DIYeditor (talk) 06:24, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
- Using my admin rights at enWP, I have resolved that matter there, and left a note on the article talk page. — billinghurst sDrewth 20:51, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
