Revision as of 15:26, 31 October 2007
Mediawiki:Spam-blacklist is meant to be used by the spam blacklist extension. Unlike the meta spam blacklist, this blacklist only affects pages on the English Wikipedia. Any administrator may edit the spam blacklist. Any developer may use $wgSpamRegex, another method to prevent the addition of spam links. However $wgSpamRegex should rarely be used.
See Wikipedia:Spam blacklist for more information about the spam blacklist.
There are 4 sections for posting comments below. Please make comments in the appropriate section. they are Proposed additions, Proposed removals, Troubleshooting and problems, and Discussion.

Proposed additions
Bhutantimes.com
NN website (simple Google News scraper and forum with negligible editorial content) being spammed for a year now by various IPs and single-purpose accounts: 202.144.139.*, 202.144,138.*, User:Atakhawjey, User:Gasailamaisingye, User:EdentheSpatUpon, 24.61.222.132, User:Darana (presumably all sockpuppets of the same person). See revision history of Bhutan Times, an article about an unrelated notable newspaper. The user now even tries to paint the website as the "headquarters for the Bhutanese pro-democracy movement" which is not backed by any independent source.

- Bramlet, I'm not related to the others. Don't link me to the other users. --Darana 17:56, 1 October 2007 (UTC) (dyn ip 24.61.222.132)
Hello? Can someone please process this? The spam is still going on. Bramlet Abercrombie 12:33, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Not done - seems to be an isolated incident, IP editor has not added the EL back for several weeks. KrakatoaKatie 08:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

sunnymonkey returns
I just love it when a spammer tries to tamper with our records or his own talk page -- it tells me he may still be spamming here. Sure enough, sunny monkey is back with his socks;[1] please blacklist this new domain:

- Additional domains I recommend blacklisting
When we blacklisted spammed domains at meta in April 2007, we held off on blacklisting the other domains this guy owned[3] that had not been spammed. I suggest that we go ahead and do this now since this guy did not take the hint, has not gone away and has a lot of domains:

Multiple IP's have been adding this link to articles about India, the last few have started making minor and often unnecessary changes to the text of the article when they insert the link, presumably to reduce the likelyhood of getting reverted.

- They added ~80 links over a 2 day period (most in the last 24hrs). I've cleaned them all, however, this domain should really be blacklisted --Versageek 06:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
- Please check the discussion at the following link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:External_links#Tossing_currenttimeindia.com_up_for_additional_opinions Opinion have been presented and seem to have agreed upon the fact that having a local time information is good for a places wiki. Please remove the link currenttimeindia.com from blacklist, since its presence in a places wiki is considered to be actually useful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.7.17.90 (talk) 03:55, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- Not so fast. Please (re)read that thread carefully. While people agree that having local time information available is useful, they also agree that providing local time via an external link in each article is not how it should be done. In addition, they DO agree that links to currenttimeindia.com were spammed. --Versageek 12:44, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- Versageek summarizes the conversation well. There was no support for the currenttimeindia.com url and several editors condemned the additions as spamming - I can only think the request above is so that the link can be spammed again. Please leave it on the blacklist. -- SiobhanHansa 13:39, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- It is agreed that local time information should be present in a place wiki. It should be added in the template of the wiki itself. How will this be done. Can the HTML of a wiki modified directly ? Unless that happens, i don't foresee this happening any time soon. Also if it is useful piece of information how can it be spam. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.7.17.240 (talk) 05:09, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- No, the html can not be changed directly, you will have to ask for (or write yourself) an extension to the software (see m:Main Page, section with Code & Technical issues. For the definition of spam, as it is used here at least, we define spam as the mass addition of links, it does not concern what is being linked to. If you see WT:WPSPAM, you will see even reports of university sites or library sites. Wikipedia is (a.o.) not a linkfarm. --Dirk Beetstra T C 08:57, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Not SPAM, but a long term IP hopping edit warrior, who's efforts currently have Mousepad and Mouse (computing) (and their talk pages) on extended semi-protection, but who continues his campaign on other pages. Full writeup here. As he almost always includes the above link(s), I'm hoping that blacklisting the link(s) will be one more step in convincing him to take his campaign elsewhere. - TexasAndroid 15:02, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- Currently handled by a bot - see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:AntiSpamBot/Blacklist_requests&oldid=164274277 --Sigma 7 08:34, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- Heh. We went after similar goals in different ways. Sic-ing an anti-vandalism bot on him based on his link is not a bad alternative to blacklisting the link. And since noone has acted to accept or deny my blacklist request, I'm guessing people are not certain whether they should accept or deny it. So, for now, I'll withdraw this request, and we'll see what effect, if any, the anti-vandalism bot brings to the situation. I may make this request again at a future date, but for now, I withdraw it. - TexasAndroid 13:34, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

This link was brought to meta, but they suggested listing it here and posting the meta conversation. Here it is:
- Hate site solely exists to discredit one person, spammed across Wikipedia on various pages to do the same. No redeeming value. --Let You2 23:58, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- Should this one not be listed at en wp rather than globally? I see the disruption for sure but I'd get that in the local blacklist asap personally. See if you can get some action from an admin on en wp, if not maybe nudge me again but it is outside what should be on Meta in my opinion, cheers --Herby talk thyme 12:30, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Herby, I'm sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with the process and don't know any admins on en wp. I agree with you about the disruption, though. Could you help? Perhaps you know an admin or something. --Let You2 21:15, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

The editor Hisham ibn Oamr Alharbi (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) has been adding ref links to the article Ahwaz territory that link to www.al-moharer.net. See diff, [4]. [Note added by Sarah: Guys, please be careful with these links. Admin Gnangarra said his antivirus and firewall went off when he followed one of the links. Sarah 02:58, 24 October 2007 (UTC)]
This website is particularly disturbing and promotes terrorist activity against the US government and the Iraqi government: "The organization basically represents Iraq and comprises all the Iraqi people and its legitimate and bona fide resistance forces which the occupation wants to destroy, with the Iraqi national armed forces as a high-priority target." [5]
Again, "Rise up Iraqis! United like the fingers of one hand! Expel these US' swindlers, crooks and rogues! These who fled their countries of origins to loot others or to escape their pariah conditions.. Reject their mentally sick local puppets who lived on welfare that the Western countries grant to handicapped, and mentally ill. Aren't these who claimed to be mad are nothing but mad!" and "Bloodthirsty US rapacious and debased rogues.. You will pay dearly for your crimes!" [6]
Among other things, this website contends that there are "more similarities between Post-9/11 America and Third Reich Germany than just over-reliance on Blitzkrieg tactics. We finally determined that the two nations were following parallel political courses." The author of that articles is, supposedly, a US military officer. [7]
Another quote from a different article, "October 2nd, 2007, will be a milestone date in the history of the Movement for the Liberation of Iraq from American and Iranian Imperialism. On that day, the Supreme leadership of the Jihad liberation struggle, which is comprised of 22 fighting factions of the Armed Iraqi National Resistance, was founded." [8]
There are more, you can find them for yourself. I don't find any mention of Ahwaz anything on the site. I suggest that this site should be blacklisted, but I don't know who to take that to. I do not know if this individual is dangerous or where he is editing from. Note, I am unsure as to how secure this website is regarding viruses, etc.
Note: I am transferring this from ANI as per admin suggestion. --Strothra 03:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

The Penton Media article was moved to My Jewelry Box and turned into a spam article. Given the real harm this does to Wikipedia, I see no reason to mess around with multiple warnings before blacklisting -- who knows what other little-watched article may be moved next and blacklisting may deter more moves.

Someone seems to be determined to link to this site from many articles, mostly related to photographic gear. The stupid spammer is linking in many disambiguation pages. Edits from a number of Pakistani IPs as well as a user account. The site is an online store, so it probably isn't an appropriate site to link to anyway.

At first I thought it was just an actor pushing his personal page, but turns out his real job seems to be blackhat SEO and there are a number of domains being spammed over a long period of time. See WikiProject Spam report permanent link -- SiobhanHansa 12:25, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- I support the blacklisting of these --Herby talk thyme 12:39, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Proposed removals
www.belarussolidaritycampaign.co.uk
This was blacklisted form the Alexander Lukashenko page by an administrator, who termed the site as 'having no content' It clearly does. Now, if the link is deemed to be unsuitable then it ought to be discussed on the talk page. In my opinion the link in question, whilst granted is still a site under construction, is still a site that has relevance to the discussion of Lukashenko and Belarus. I propose that it be removed from the blacklist, so it may be linked to in the future if agreed in discussion on the talk page, but its dismissal by one administrator (zscout370) is at least a stifling of debate and objectivity, and at worse is censorship.
- The website was just established and it has "Under construction" notices on the main page. The links that work are stating the goals for the group and begging people to join. This is pure linkspam, thus why I added it to the black list. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 06:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply! The point I'm making is that the site is being updated and now does have information too. I concede that at the moment the site is not complete and as such is not worthy being a part of the current external links, however the blacklisting means that when that changes, or if wikipedia wishes to link to an article there in the future this will not be possible. I politely ask that the site be removed from the blacklist, (and also promise to refrain from adding it to the current list of external links).
--Belaruski 14:07, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
- The blacklist isn't permanent and I don't intend for this link to stay here forever. But right now, I think it should stay. I will go back to the site, lets say, weekly and look at it. But we get so many external links about Belarus and we got so many campaign sites from the UK, Poland that me and others just remove them all. I am starting to clear out other Belarusian links too, so your site isn't the only one seeing removal. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 18:46, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Any chance the link can be un blacklisted now? We recently held a demo in London, are a legally recognised body with international members and would like to set up a page of our own. A bit embarrasing when we can't link to ourselves! Thanks.--Belaruski 21:42, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Interesting guidelines if they are applied accross the board. However if you will look at the site in question and argue that none of the articles are relevant, or may in the future be relevant as external links then you are in effect allowing censorship on wikipedia. I agree that it is very easy for just anyone to link to themselves on Wikipedia, but the site in question is clearly not spam. --79.65.244.108 22:37, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- I removed it from the blacklist, but I still do not think the site should be added to Wikipedia. We get many Belarusian campaign sites and this is just one out of many that look and feel the same. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 13:51, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Invisionfree (removal)
I request InvisionFree be taken of the blacklist. -King SweaterHead 01:33, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- There has been some postings on the talk page of the Meta blacklist related to invisionfree.com links. Could you please remove or strip the links if you are going to keep it blacklisted? There seems to be quite many articles with invisionfree links in them here, and editors gets problems when the links are blocked.
- Reference:
- Special:Linksearch&target=%2A.invisionfree.com&namespace=&limit=500&offset=0
- --Jorunn 09:15, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- There appear to be about a hundred links on article pages. I've checked out 15 instances and only one of those (the actual InvisionFree article) seems to be appropriate. Given that our guidelines consider forums to be external links to be avoided, I don't know that the one article where it is appropriate is significant reason to remove if it has been spammed. Worryingly links to these forums are even being used as citations. Blacklisting may even have the side effect of lifting the quality of some articles slightly. -- SiobhanHansa 12:00, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, actually. The ZetaBoards article's HOMEPAGE is invisionfree. Why exactly do they have an article about something that is blacklisted exacly? -King SweaterHead 14:18, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
(unindent) I've done a little more research since unfortunately JzG appears to have retired. I looked through JzG's contributions around the time he made the addition. I couldn't find any explanation documented but he did remove a bunch of the links just after he listed it and he edited the ZetaBoard article. I looked into several of the links he removed, and while I can't fault their removal (they were all either inappropriate external links or inappropriate references), when I looked at the history of who added each link I didn't find anything I would consider to be evidence of a spam campaign, it looked more like individual enthusiasts making good faith but poor judgement additions (see a selection of the additions:[10][11][12][13]. However, I still tend to think the link should stay blacklisted with maybe the homepage only white listed for the ZetaBoards article. -- SiobhanHansa 18:02, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Do people here not understand what Invisionfree forums are? I run one for a small football club that does not have a website and it's therefore the only on-line presence for the football club that I support. I take great exception to your assumption that me trying to define it as an External Link on the Wikipedia page THAT I CREATED is spam! No, actually it's a Link to a web page that is about the subject. Can I please request that this global Blacklist on all Invisionfree forums be removed? Elvisgresley 16:59, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Invisionfree is then still not the only online presence. There will be items in newspapers (right?). The site itself does not assert the notability of the football club, that is governed by other sources. The link is useful as an external link (but it is not a must), and maybe for some parts as a reference (but then the specific link can be whitelisted). --Dirk Beetstra T C 17:06, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- In your opinion. However seeing as I am unable to even post a link from this page to my forum, you're actually unable to make an informed decision on this matter, are you? Could you please be so kind as to let me know how to request a whitelisting? Thanks so much, xxx Elvisgresley 17:26, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your help - much appreciated. Isn't blacklisting invisionfree forums something of a futile exercise based upon dogma more than anything constructive? 1. They are not spam as they do not sell anything (in fact they actually cost money to run and most of them aren't begging for donations every 5 minutes - if you get my drift!). 2. They can be linked to by setting up a redirect link to another non-blacklisted url. Elvisgresley 17:16, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- I indeed can not see the link, but if it is really the only link providing information, then the football club may not be notable .. indeed, we can not check, but then, everyone can create a forum on invisionfree, and then write a wikipedia page about it.
- If it is your forum, then also our conflict of interest guideline may be of interest. Spamming is not about what is linked to, it is about how it gets linked. Invisionfree is self-published, and people certainly add the links to their own websites (again, see our conflict of interest guideline and our spam guideline). Forums do not comply with our reliable sources guideline, and as such, for now, blacklisting of such links is quite appropriate.
- By the way, redirect sites should immediately be reported to the meta spam-blacklist, these are a general way of going around blacklisting. --Dirk Beetstra T C 17:32, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- Forgot, MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist is the whitelisting, the accompanying talkpage is where you can request whitelisting. --Dirk Beetstra T C 12:04, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Infodriveindia.com (removal)
Pls revert Infodriveindia.com links, and take infodriveindia.com of the blacklist.
Hello , I am Rakesh Saraf , Director InfodriveIndia. InfodriveIndia is a free International Trade Resource with huge statistical and database driven content of around 200,000 pages. Our website has been reported as spam. [4]. I and my colleagues have added few links of main categories of our content in the most appropriate and related categories of wikipedia. I admit we are just learning how to use wikipedia and may not be very familiar with wikipedia technical terms, but we have certainly added value to wikipedia in a ethical manner.
a) Links added meet the guidelines in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:EL#What_should_be_linked.
b) links added don't have links on similar subject almost all the time.
c) The content we have on our website is the most comprehensive and upto date then even the Govt sources.
d) Any user with exposure in International trade is welcome to check the above.
e) We have been warned only Once , and it was very technical warning. We didn't knew terms like "socks puppets" and that "creating a External Links section is not allowed". I still don't understand what is wrong in my colleagues adding a link , as long as it is related and adds value to the page ?
f) I have read in talk pages about Wikipedia not being a linkfarm and I appreciate the idea, however our content cannot be added directly in Wikipedia as a article ..as it is database driven and voluminous and WP:EL point 3.1.3 mentions that such links "Should be added". Can anybody guide us ..? In case we have done any technical mistakes ...can somebody advise what we need to do ?
g) I could not find any Wiki Project related to International Trade to ask others to judge this.
h) What is the criteria of judging such issues ? basis of "links being added" or " value being added" ??
i) Whom should I contact in Wikipedia, who can check our links and content and certify that they do "ADD VALUE " to the Wikipedia article where they were added and confirm to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:EL#What_should_be_linked
More details of this discussion could be had here.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WT:WPSPAM#infodriveindia.com
Thanks & Rgds, RakeshRakesh999991 08:14, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
- I will reply to each of the points:
- a) as an example, the link http://www dot infodriveindia dot com/India-Exports-Trade-Data.aspx got added to Balance of trade, the added link gives access to India specific data, for some companies, over 2004 only. That is certainly WP:EL#Links normally to be avoided (point 14, not directly linked to subject; otherwise we could also add links for all other countries over all other years). Seen the specificity of the data, it is better used to make a point (and the link used as a reference, see WP:CITE, and intro WP:EL) about a company's trade in 2004, but I expect the data to bee too specific for that. Same things can be said about some other link additions.
- b) As point a, the specific trade of India is not directly linked to business of trade, it would be to Trade of India, but this data may be too specific even for that page. Moreover, we are not a linkfarm.
- c) The page in the above example is 2004. Would not call that up-to-date. And again, it is then better as a reference.
- d) I will leave that to an expert, indeed.
- e) You were indeed warned only once, for a pretty blatant addition. Blacklisting occured after user:Jon007 ignored a {{uw-spam4im}} (final warning) for 5 days, and was given 3 other warnings in the meantime. As Jon007 has not reacted until now, it is difficult to ask him why he ignored the warnings.
- f) Well, as I said above, I disagree. This data (over a previous, closed year) is certainly suitable as a reference, or can be used to write content which can be attributed by the data.
- g) see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory/History_and_society#Business_and_economics, guess that should be a more specific search point.
- h) If there are concerns they are expressed by contacting people on talkpages. If people continuously ignore these warnings, it is either put on autorevert (see User:AntiSpamBot) or blacklisted here. The wikipedia is a cooperative project, and when there are concerns then it is best to first discuss on talkpages or with a wikiproject. Unfortunately, Jon007 ignored these warnings completely.
- i) I guess, some established editors. You can try talkpages of pages where you want the links added, posting there, or see if there are editors who are frequently editing the documents and contacting them on their talkpages.
- Hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra T C 08:58, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Health N Insurance
I request you to remove the link healthninsurance.net from the blacklist.
I had come to know about my blacklist status just now. I'm certainly not aware of the reasons behind this inclusion in the Wiki's Blacklist. I'm not aware of the reasons for this blacklisting, But one thing I surely say is that this site is a very good resource about the health insurance in US. It provides very useful information for the individuals.
So, I think the Wiki Admins should surely see into this matter as to how this link got entangled into the Wiki's Blacklist filters at all.

- There was significant and nd ongoing spamming of this link (see this and this). Are there other sites that are just as good? Alternatively we could put in a whitelist request for all the links being used as references I could help develop that if it's needed - let me know.
- In the meantime, so you don't loose information, links can be commented out or, if you're using footnotes, left as a non-hyperlinked url (www.mapsofworld.com/....). -- SiobhanHansa 15:24, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
Discussion
guidelines?
It may be worth being pro-active and outlining how this will be used locally, e.g. what modifications are needed to m:Spam blacklist/About? Does someone who pays attention to how this works on meta have an opinion? - BanyanTree 09:34, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- First we should make this talk page look a little more like m:Talk:Spam blacklist I think. I will work on that. :) FunPika 17:46, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- I am going to change Wikipedia:Spam blacklist from a soft redirect to a page similar to m:Spam blacklist/About. FunPika 18:47, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- One guideline that immediately jumps to mind is Do not add an entry without discussing it on the talk page first. It's one thing if an admin accidentally adds a catch-all regex to MediaWiki:Usernameblacklist; it is another when an admin adds it here. Another possible guidelines: entries added without discussion may be removed (unless it's a Foundation action), not only because the admin adding them may not know what he/she is doing, but because each entry should ideally require consensus (not the silent kind). An exception for this should possibly be set up for tentative entries due to link spamming. One more guideline to consider is, The burden of proof is on the person who suggests the addition. These do seem a bit restrictive, but a blacklist is not something to be taken lightly. GracenotesT § 05:31, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
- Let me point out one thing to you folks from my experiance with the meta blacklist. If you don't know regex, please don't modify this list, as even simple formatting screwups have a nasty tendency to a) enable the blacklist for all links or b) disable the blacklist for this site. (on meta its disabled for everyone). That is why you see the nice header on the blacklist page. I will be working to get our blacklist on meta caught back up, and I would advise that spam be brought there *first*. This list is great for en wiki only attack sites, ect, things that we don't need to blacklist across all wikis. —— Eagle101Need help? 03:19, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, also, if you guys format the archives for this blacklist like the archives on meta, I already have a script that does the archiving, drop me a message if you would like me to file a bot request to run that archive script on this page as well. —— Eagle101Need help? 03:21, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
- Also I highly suggest that you guys have a spam blacklist log, so that you know what happened 3 months down the road. see the WP:WHITELIST for an example of what a log looks like. The log should contain why the admin blacklisted a site, (preferably with a link to a permanent version of the discussion on this page). From that you can tell why a link was added 3 months later when the original admin might not be around. I'm sorry if I keep posting here, but I've had plenty of experience with this :) —— Eagle101Need help? 03:25, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Adding entry without discussion
I note that User:JzG has just added a Wikipedia-criticism site to the spam blacklist without discussion, despite the general guideline that such things need to be discussed. This seems to be yet another of the many attempts to get some spawn of WP:BADSITES to be treated as policy regardless of failure to ever get consensus for it. *Dan T.* 17:54, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- There's been some discussion on the mailing list about this. Having had a look over the site, I for one think it most certainly belongs on the spam blacklist and I can't see any reason why anyone would want to link to it. Whether the process was appropriate, the result is correct. Sam Blacketer 20:48, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- The mailing list is not onsite, and doesn't allow everyone to say their piece - especially because it is moderated. I have removed it until such time as a proper discussion has taken place. Especially because there is an outstanding arbcom request involving links to this site. ViridaeTalk 02:31, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
- General comments based on lessons learned the hard way at meta:Spam blacklist:
- There should be a log for this list such as there is at meta:Spam blacklist/Log. (Spam_blacklist/Log is currently a red link but maybe I'm missing something). If we're not logging stuff now, we're going to really regret it in a few weeks or months. Whitelist requests come in now at MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist or at meta:Talk:Spam blacklist#Proposed removals about older stuff on the meta blacklist and nobody knows how a particular domain got on the list. Look at the older entries on the meta log to see what I mean about confusion. Every blacklist entry should have a blacklist log entry linking to an explanation of the blacklisting.
- The intended audience for a spam blacklist log are the admins of 2012 that have to understand why stuff's blacklisted. Believe it or not, today's hot spam topics may be curiously passé by then: Viagra may be off the market and current wikidrama sites may have gone the way of beanie babies and lava lamps.
- After just 3 years, requests to whitelist stuff at MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist seem to default to whitelisting if there's not an adequate explanation in the meta log. Today's admins and editors must fully document their reasons if they want blacklisted stuff to stay blacklisted in the future.
- Terse, generic log entries like "[[WP:NOT#SOAP]]" or "[[WP:EL]]" are insufficient.
- Stepping through histories of several hundred edits/month to figure out 3-year old entries is an enormous pain in the neck. (I've done it before). Please don't just rely on edit summaries or future editors and admins will hate you when they finally find your entry.
- I think off-wiki mailing lists, IRC, etc are not very transparent and make for poor documentation. This is true even of official and semi-official channels. There doesn't necessarily need to be a discussion here on this talk page, but spam blacklist log entries should permalink to some explanation of the blacklisting decision on en.wikipedia.org, for example WP:AN/I.
