Farmvillebonuscollector.com

User and anonymous IP address adding links to a scam website on the FarmVille page, claiming it to be a typo fix in the summary. I haven't warned them yet as I'm not entirely sure what course of action to take, and whether to give them an only warning since it is a blatant scam site. Deftera^talk 22:11, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

UPDATE: I reverted the edits but another user, an obvious sockpuppet, came back using the name of Farmvillebonuscollector, the same name as the scammy website. Again I'm not entirely sure what course of action to take here as I'm not very experienced with this sort of thing and am unsure what warning to put, where to report, etc.

I'm not familiar with how the process works but how does one go about getting a link blacklisted? I'd like to start a discussion on whether or not WP providing a link to the website could ever be positive. I think not but that's just my opinion. As the spamming seems to be increasing, I'd like to take action as soon as possible. OlYeller^Talktome 20:43, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

New user creating links to British Geological Survey

This user has only been editing for two hours and has created nothing but external links to British Geographical Survey pages [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Coastal_erosion&diff=prev&oldid=395914420 eg this diff] This are clearly in good faith, but I'm unsure if a line has been crossed, and thought a more experienced eye was needed. almost-instinct 13:18, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

:I don't think the British Geological Survey qualifies as "spam." They're probably underlinked on en.wiki as a resource of scientific information, if anything. The United States Geological Survey is one of the most important links for geological articles on en.wiki. Is he/she adding "British Geographical Survey" links also? I didn't see those and don't know about that, though. --Kleopatra (talk) 14:23, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

::Quite, it is tricky. For example, is adding a link to [http://www.bgs.ac.uk/science/landuseanddevelopment/landslides/blubberhouses.html this webpage] on the Blubberhouses page relevant? It's interesting stuff, but .... almost-instinct 14:41, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

:::Sounds like a good try at making an editor. --Kleopatra (talk) 07:54, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Tricky, indeed. But lets define it different, quite some of the additions do fail the external links guideline, and/or (worse) WP:NOT (specifically, WP:NOT#REPOSITORY and WP:NOT#DIRECTORY). They either don't add, are not directly linked, are not giving any information on the subject but rather examples, etc. etc. I would, kindly though firmly, suggest the editor to stop with what they are doing in this way, and have a read through our policies and guidelines. Having said that, I will leave the editor a welcome template and such a suggestion.

Note (to Kleopatra): true, this does not qualify as spam, the behaviour may be qualified as spamming (but I'll assume good faith for now). --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 14:51, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

gardenvisit.com

This site is spammed across a large number of Wikipedia articles. It is a low-quality directory of gardens open to the public. Most entries contain far more information on nearby hotels than they do on the garden itself. The commercial focus of the site and the imbalance between content and advertising make me think that it should be blacklisted and subsequently removed from all articles. --Simple Bob (talk) 13:03, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

All six websites, spammed by the same user, mostly masquerading as references. All six websites have been constructed using the same tool, and use the same basic page layout. Just view the page source and you will see exactly what I mean. The meta tags have the same layout. The same "xsp_styles.Css" stylesheet is called by each website. The exact same table-based layout is used. I think this 100% alignment between all six websites by a user whose only contribution has been to add these sites, shows a clear promotional intent. I would ask that all six sites are added to the spam blacklist. --Biker Biker (talk) 18:44, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

amzn.to

{{LinkSummary|amzn.to}}
See WT:WikiProject Spam/2010 Archive Aug 1#amzn.to and WP:WikiProject Spam/LinkReports/amzn.to.

Would someone please explain what amzn.to is: is it some form of spam? I noticed this [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Textbook&action=historysubmit&diff=399041041&oldid=397247239 edit] which added two amzn.to links to Textbook (I reverted), then I found that Amazon Kindle had 12 links to amzn.to inserted in the last week or so (I have just restored originals). For example, this added link http://amzn.to/Kindle_WiFi is a redirect to http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002Y27P3M?ie=UTF8&tag=bfdst-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002Y27P3M There were a few other links like that at Amazon MP3, DJ Max Portable 3, The War On Destiny book and there is one at WT:Articles for creation/Steve Piacente.

:Amazon has launched it’s own shortened URL amzn.to ,When you login on amazon you'll see "Share on twitter" icon on top of every page,it's shortened url for share on twitter with the domain amzn.to/. I think it's easy to remember than the long url and it's not spam. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.14.5.140 (talk) 20:43, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

::Thanks for info. Nevertheless, it has been used in a spammy way, with several embedded external links within Amazon Kindle, and I'm suspicious about whether the expanded URL (example above) might contain a referral code. Johnuniq (talk) 22:46, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
