Talk:Spam blacklist
- 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 2024/06.

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. |

Fake Le Parisien and Le Point websites
editlepoint.wf
leparisien.wf
A wave of fake Le Parisien and Le Point sites is circulating on social networks (it's so virulent that they're talking about it on TF1's 8 o'clock news): two of them have really circulated : lepoint.wf and leparisien.wf, could you please block them preventively ?

Declined - 1) the sites only displays a default VestaCP page. 2) this doesn't meet our criteria of preemptively blacklisting domains. XXBlackburnXx (talk) 22:33, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, the site is inactive right now. Can it be removed from the blacklist, and might anybody tell me why it was blacklisted at all? Best regards, --Agathenon (talk) 16:52, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
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). |

IPv4 spam
editI've recently noticed an increase in the use of IPv4 addresses as domain names for spamming. To better track these additions, I created Special:AbuseFilter/349. - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 08:16, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
