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}} oder {{declined}}, and are generally archived quickly. Additions and removals are logged · current log 2024/08.

Proposed additions

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. |

Added to Spam blacklist. --Count Count (talk) 10:53, 26 May 2024 (UTC) - I am writing to request that surahalmulk.net be removed from the local or global spam blacklists. I believe that this website should be allowed because the website has a well-structured and unique content that is also used in Wikipedia content on the article {Surah Al-Mulk}. Specifically, here at surahalmulk.net, we help people understand, learn, and read Surah Al-Mulk with our 5 years of knowledge in this niche. We’ll explain what each verse means and why it’s important. Whether you’re new to studying the Quran or have been doing it for a while, our content will teach you new things and inspire you to come close to Allah.I have checked the blacklists and found that the website is affected by the global spam blacklists. I understand that the website was blocked due to spaming, I don't know how did it.However, I believe that the website has since addressed the concerns that led to the block. Therefore, I respectfully request that the website be removed from the blacklists.If you require any additional information or evidence, please let me know. I am happy to provide any necessary details to support my request. Thank you!! Hammadchannarmalik (talk) 15:28, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

I wanted to use this article from this newspaper for sourcing an article but was met with resistance. Why is this news publication blacklisted? Seems reliable to me, saw nothing fishy on the city and the article I wanted to refer to was well written, had no copyvio and a clear author. Estrellato (talk) 00:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- You were able to link the site in your removal request (referring to "this article"), so it is not globally blacklisted. Please direct your request to the wiki you are having issues with. - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 01:23, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- It's not in our local blacklist either (svwiki), but I couldn't link it. So I have no idea what the issue might be. I had to use it as a bookref instead (see sv:Ferrarito)Estrellato (talk) 07:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- There is nothing in the local sbl and abuse filter logs either and I could add the link in my sandbox there. I suggest asking the local svwiki administrators about this with the exact error message. There is nothing we can do for you here. Count Count (talk) 10:32, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

- I tried to add it on svwiki using the visual editor, it said "This source is considered unreliable by our community, and therefore is not allowed. Please choose a different reliable source.". This could be the reason Estrellato couldn't save their edit. Though I don't know what is causing this. - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 22:07, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Apparently it comes from the "Reference Reliability check" from the Edit check project. It supposedly checks the MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist or MediaWiki:BlockedExternalDomains.json but obviously something is wrong with it. Count Count (talk) 05:15, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

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). |
