- Evidence submitted by Hu12
Mass abuse including citation spamming, source soliciting and external linkspamming of explore.org (now blacklisted). IP 64.60.123.130 looks to be User:Badums from this edit. Others abuse Wikipedia in the same manor, one account boasts that he/she is " currently involved in marketing a brand new web concept called Explore.org...''". See also - WikiProject Spam Case

- Redirected the case to earliest used account Badums. I suspect that the user(s) of this account is/are employed by explore.org, but that Badums is an otherwise legitimate account. An initiative of the Annenberg Foundation, its possible that adding it to the spam blacklist is overkill. In any case, endorsed to see if evidence suggests whether these are co-workers or in fact the same person. The accounts haven't edited in the last few days, so if its separate but connected users the warnings given may be sufficient. Nathan T 18:21, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
