| 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. |

They don't give up, see COIBot's reports and for example c:Talk:MAGAZINEANV. If not added here, no problem, will add to local SBL. Cheers, Achim55 (talk) 08:24, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Pair of "news" sites that seem to be owned & operated by a paid-editing firm. Just about everyone who has added these seems to be associated with one UPE group or another. GeneralNotability (talk) 19:29, 13 March 2022 (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}}.
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:

linktr.ee[edit]

- (Reports: Report <-track | XWiki | Local | en | find entry)(DomainTools: whois | AboutUs | Malware? | Alexa)
The Embassy of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in the Republic of China (Taiwan) is using linktr.ee/svgroctw as its official website.
See for instance how their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/svgroctw/ lists that URL in the official website field. Same on their Twitter https://twitter.com/svgroctw.
The service seems to be used as a quick and cheap way to set up an official website that contains a short description, links, and custom image+background.

- Linketree is not a website but just a collection of links. It's used by many organisations & influencers because instagram and twitter allow just one weblink. If some of the embassys weblinks are considered useful they should be added to a wikipedia article manually without adding a linktree that may contain other unnecessary links as well.

Not done for one site that uses the domain, especially where it is more universally problematic. — billinghurst sDrewth 09:51, 11 March 2022 (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). |
