There has been a sort of spam-campaign going for US-related cities, where the domain will consist of town[placename].com. The spammer decided to open an ANI thread to complain about a warning they were left for spamming external links at [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Complaint from Microthought2021]], which led to a boomerang and a block. The links possibly need blacklisting - they are clearly owned by the same person, which rely on advertising to make profit and collect a few news sources to pass off as their own work. COIBot only processed one link when I tried to poke it however. [[User:Pahunkat|Pahunkat]] ([[User talk:Pahunkat|talk]]) 12:12, 15 February 2021 (UTC) |

The accounts are the same user (see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Bismatrimony and its archive) and have been blocked as such (or soon will be). If the URL was blacklisted it might stop the socking, with any luck. --bonadea contributions talk 08:14, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Looks like a drive-by spammer, only one known account. Pahunkat (talk) 11:07, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

The user has got away with linkspamming from the 9th - sandbox may also need to be nuked. Thanks, Pahunkat (talk) 11:16, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Per Njd-de's report at WP:AIV. — Newslinger talk 16:44, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Newslinger for opening the report. Added two more users who spammed links to this website today. NJD-DE (talk) 16:52, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Added to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. COIBot is acting a little strange, but there's clearly enough evidence to blacklist this domain. — Newslinger talk 19:30, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Found one more account through a link search. Adding another link summary template to give this another try. — Newslinger talk 19:38, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- The COIBot report uncovered Lervaas. Since the domain is now blacklisted, this should be all. — Newslinger talk 06:49, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

There has been a sort of spam-campaign going for US-related cities, where the domain will consist of town[placename].com. The spammer decided to open an ANI thread to complain about a warning they were left for spamming external links at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Complaint from Microthought2021, which led to a boomerang and a block. The links possibly need blacklisting - they are clearly owned by the same person, which rely on advertising to make profit and collect a few news sources to pass off as their own work. See the IP's contribs. COIBot only processed one link when I tried to poke it however. Pahunkat (talk) 12:12, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
