[edit] Parallel universes?

This article and High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection must live in parallel universes. There, an administrator keeps removing even links to the original post of the master key on pastebin, despite the fact that the pastebin link is given in article appearing in a couple of respectable computing web magazines, CNET and PC Magazine. What happened to WP:KEYSPAM and WP:ELNEVER here?? Tijfo098 (talk) 03:56, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

How does WP:KEYSPAM support having the link exactly? --Cybercobra (talk) 04:36, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
I don't know or care because it's a non-binding essay, but the admin removes [1] [2] the reference link (which is cited in CNET and PC Magazine) because ELNEVER does not allow links which encourage copyright violations. By that account, the ZDNet and Inquirer links used here serve exactly the same purpose, never mind the actual keys themselves, which are posted in full here. If you remove the sources per ELNEVER, as he did, then you wouldn't be able to include any key here. Tijfo098 (talk) 05:29, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit] by the way

Kenneth, what are the prime factors? —Tamfang (talk) 05:30, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Dead link

During several automated bot runs the following external link was found to be unavailable. Please check if the link is in fact down and fix or remove it in that case!

[edit] MKB v25 keys found

Processing keys up to MKB v25 have been published here and appear to be genuine. Obviously "processing keys for versions past 10 have not yet been released" needs to be updated, but I'm not sure whether it's best to

  • Just mention the fact that the new keys have been found,
  • Provide that link to the keys, or
  • Quote the full list of keys in the Wikipedia article itself
